Cultivation

We cultivate our Calla’s in greenhouses with a total surface area of 1.6 hectares. Once the flowers are ready for sale they are automatically harvested. Within minutes they are on a conveyer belt and in water, after which they are immediately placed in a cooling area.

New varieties of Calla’s are regularly tested in partnership with plant breeders whilst we also optimise the quality, colour and shelf life of existing varieties. We try as much as possible to control the plant’s growth with fertilization by regularly taking soil and leaf samples. This creates the appropriate cell wall thickness meaning the flowers last longer. Organic pesticides are used which ensures the plant and flowers retain their growth response.
