We celebrate our 95th anniversary in 2017! We are proud that we have grown into a large flower bulb company in 95 years with export to more than 20 countries, but that we are also still a family company that focuses on long-term relationships with customers, suppliers, and staff. We went to the Keuk...

Our test garden with more than 400 tulip, hyacinth, narcissus, and allium varieties is in full bloom at the moment. We can enjoy this colourful sea of flowers even longer this year because of the recent cold weather. Our test garden attracts many customers from both the Netherlands and abroad, and o...

The weather has been dry in our part of the country for quite some time now. This makes most people happy, but the tulips do not like it very much. The tops of the first tulips have been cut off, and therefore they need water now. A reel is used for the irrigation. The tractor rolls out the hose, an...

And in the meantime… While the first tulips are flowering outside, the lilies in our test greenhouse are also growing well. Now that the sun shines on a regular basis, it will not take long before this will be in bloom. When the last tulips are dried out in the field in May, these lilies will flo...

Now that spring’s warm temperatures have started, the first tulips have started to bloom. The fields in the pictures have been covered with a layer of plastic foil in December. This foil allows the tulips to reach an earlier flowering period, so that the bulbs can be used earlier in the winter. Th...

Here you can see a few pictures of our tulips in the greenhouse of the Flower Bulb Inspection Service (Dutch: Bloembollenkeuringsdienst; BKD). In this greenhouse, the BKD checks if the quality of the planted bulbs in the fields of the growers matches the certification. The planting material is alrea...

The sun is shining, the temperature is rising, and the tulips are emerging from the soil again. Therefore we have started to select the tulips again. In doing so, we drive a truck over the planted beds. Each tulip that deviates from the normal image, mostly caused by a virus, is removed immediately....

We have been using our tulip test greenhouse for a while now. The planning of the desired flowering date at our customers is synchronised with the growth of our tulips in our own test greenhouse. Each lot is sampled before shipment, and is planted and put in the greenhouse at the same time as it was...

We are present at the ‘Vaktentoonstelling Zwaagdijk’ (English: Trade Exhibition Zwaagdijk) again this year, and our booth is looking beautiful again. The weather outside is cold and the trees are bare, but colourful flowers are blooming profusely inside. Does this not make you eager for spring? ...
