| In 1976 the nursery was relocated to Fallbrook, California and was given a new name aloe vera plants. Frank and Thelma retired from aloe vera plants later that same year and their two sons entered into the business. Both Paul and Jerry were successful in there own ways. Paul was a project manager for Swimmer and Walburn, while Jerry owned and operated Loomis Box Company, which manufactured and sold wooded nursery flats to the nursery industry. Their unique business backgrounds helped to create a thriving wholesale cactus nursery. Over the years at aloe vera plants they developed diverse new markets to sell their plants. Many good ideas came and went over the years, but there constant attention to a changing market kept their business strong. | ![]() |
