The magic of our growers

martes 13 mayo 2025

Behind every flower lies a story, and it starts with the grower. In this article, we take you behind the scenes with our Preferred Suppliers: dedicated professional growers who put their heart and soul into cultivating the most beautiful flowers every day. We asked them: what makes your work so magical?

Preferred Supplier Kwekerij de Opstal

“A magical moment? For us, it's the growth process, you're dependent on Mother Nature. It remains special to see how roses grow—each time just a little different.”

And they don’t do it alone.

“Without our team, we’re nothing. We truly do this together.”

Preferred Supplier Haas Calla & Helleborus

At Haas, it’s all about a deep connection with nature.

“The best part is working with our hands every day, in the light, among the plants. Always striving to improve our product. Sitting in an office? That’s definitely not for us.”

Preferred Supplier Van Der Wilt Gerbera’s

It mainly comes down to the process. We do a lot of custom work, and that's exactly what I like about it. If someone needs something last minute, they can still call at 11:00, and in 9 out of 10 cases, we’re able to make it happen.

We all say it: we want flowers and plants we can feel good about. Grown without chemicals, with respect for people, animals, and the planet. But the moment a flower isn’t completely “perfect” – when there’s a bug visible or a spot on a leaf – we turn up our noses. We want the results of sustainab...
