Founded by Michael Leider, Sr., who emigrated from Luxembourg in the late 1890s, the company began as a vegetable farm before evolving into a potted flower and plant grower. The business was expanded by his son, Michael Martin Leider, and later led by the third and fourth generations, including Mark and Mary Leider. In 1965, the company relocated to Lake County and built the Midwest’s first fully modern greenhouses. It pioneered the “Interior Landscape” concept in the 1960s, responding to the need for greenery in contemporary urban architecture. This innovation led to the creation of Tropical Plant Rentals, Inc., a division dedicated to professional plant care and installation.
