It was only after the fall of Constantinople in 1453 that Holland became such a gay land of flowers as It now is. Many Dutchmen went to the East during the years of the great crusades, and those of them who loved beautiful things brought seeds with them.

When these were planted In the rich soil of Holland such wondrous flowers appeared as had never before been seen in that country. The people became wildly enthusiastic over the new colors and scents and foliage brought to them from the East, and In Holland there sprang up a great love for gardening. GEO. W.
