1961-1970
At the new site on Lange Broekweg, father Goos Senior and son Frans Junior each have one hectare of land with their own separate greenhouses. They limit their crop selection to chrysanthemums, cacti, tomatoes and cucumbers. Frans Junior becomes a specialist in schlumbergera, or Christmas cacti, which he discovers by chance via a British customer. He goes on to have great success propagating the plants from cuttings. Goos Senior passes away in 1969, and son Tom steps in to keep his business going. In 1978, Tom emigrates to France and Frans Junior takes over the business.
