Anthurium pot plants and cut flowers

Every innovation begins with an initial spark of inspiration, and so does the development of a new Anthurium pot plant. Our breeding department creates new varieties with unique characteristics aimed at the consumer of the future.

Anthurium pot plants

The single plug PP1S (10 weeks) is the youngest and therefore the smallest plant we offer. The PP1S is only supplied to Dutch customers to pot up in very small pots, such as the 7 cm and 9 cm pot.

In addition to the PP1S plug, we sell the PP1L plug (3 months). This is a small plug of good quality. This plug is suitable for further cultivation in various pot sizes such as the 12 cm pot and for export, as it is robust and strong. Thanks to the small size, shipping costs are low.

At our Anthurium production site, PP1S plugs are also used to make 6PP2 (5 months) and 7PP2 article types (6 months). As a result, a suitable plug or pot is available for every pot size at the grower's facility.

Potting two PP1S plugs into a 6 cm or 7 cm pot is fully automated. The great advantage of starting with two plants in one pot is that a full, bushy plant with many flowers can soon be grown, since both plugs produce cuttings and flowers. After nine months, the plant (9 cm pot) is ready to be sold to consumers.

The Anthurium process

Research

Research

In our Research Centre we are passionate about embracing the rapid developments in plant sciences, cultivation techniques and digitization. We find this tremendously interesting and we work at the cutting edge of the industry with passion and enthusiasm. The Anthurium is not a model plant, which means we have to figure out a lot for ourselves. Using applied research, we focus on improving the properties and cultivation method of Anthurium. This is clearly reflected in our brilliant varieties.

Breeding

Breeding

Breeding Anthurium is a lengthy process in which the highest achievable quality is the gold standard. This part of the process takes seven to eight years. Cross-breeding is done in our large breeding greenhouse and only the best seedlings are selected and cloned, after which they are extensively tested and inspected.

Lab for propogation

Propogation

Our laboratories in China, Northern Macedonia and the Netherlands guarantee flexibility when it comes to propagating our planting material. Our global presence ensures risk diversification and delivery reliability to our own production facilities, which are located in Germany, China and the Netherlands. After years of thorough testing and selection, a potential variety is propagated in our own laboratories.

Young anthurium plants

Young plants

In a nearly 30-acre state-of-the-art greenhouse, the Anthurium plants from the laboratory continue to grow. Our cultivation method is innovative and energy-conscious. The greenhouse complex in Bleiswijk is equipped with a fully automated logistics system, assimilation lighting and humidifiers to guarantee optimal climate conditions.

Anthurium cut flowers

For Anthurium cut flower cultivation, we supply young plant material in two plant sizes: a plug and a 20-25 cm plant.

The youngest plant is a plug; this small size entails low shipping costs. However, these plants should first be grown in a 9 cm pot for at least four months. After four months, the plant reaches about 20-25 cm and is strong enough to be planted in the growing bed.

The second size, a 20-25 cm plant, is the most popular plant size due to its transport volume and flowering period. For those who want to start producing flowers quickly, this plant size is ideal. The plants can be planted directly in the growing bed and produce the first flowers in as little as 4-5 months.
