After working for the previous owners for 10 years, Mrs. Torris took over ownership of the nursery in 1974, and has remained the proprietress since then. In 2014 the Yellow advertiser photographed and wrote an article on Mrs. Torris of how she has run and owned the nursery for 51 years! In 2016 as part of recognition for her service for the community Mrs. Torris attended the houses of parliament for a celebratory meal and tour.
