It's the home of several lovely community parks. And its quaint, historic commercial strip along Tulip Avenue is a favorite destination for residents all over New York.

One curious aspect of Floral Park is the street names, like Verbena, Violet, Geranium, Iris and Gladiolus, which pay homage to various types of flowers. The source of this unique nomenclature goes back to the years following the Civil War. Back then most of the neighborhood was composed of flower farms. The country's first flower seed catalogue was based in the neighborhood. The businessman who started that catalogue business owned much of the land in the area and so he named all of the streets after flowers to promote the appreciation of his favorite varieties.
