Day-to-day management of the Nursery was
assumed by their daughter, Iola, in 1988 and ownership was transferred to
Iola in 1990.
The Nursery has increased in size over the years. Starting with
just one greenhouse in 1980, it has grown to over 200,000 sq feet of
growing space.

Currently the Nursery has 44 free standing
greenhouses and 2 large gutter-connect houses. To support the increase in
growth over the years, modern techniques and automation have been
incorporated along with many new buildings and equipment.
The Nursery is managed by owner Iola Elder and her twin sister Siriol
Paquet. This has always been a family affair, and there have been many
family members that have participated, and continue to support the
Nursery's operations.
