What is breeding?

At HilverdaFlorist, breeding is all about developing new varieties of flowers and plants. We do this through careful cross-pollination and selection, much like a chef choosing the finest ingredients for a new recipe. The result? Strong, healthy plants with unique colours, shapes and scents. Plants that are not only beautiful, but also thrive in your garden or on your patio. This way, we ensure you can enjoy something new and special every season. Follow this website and be the first to discover our latest flower and plant varieties.

Smart and sustainable growing

At HilverdaFlorist, our flowers and plants are cultivated in modern, sustainable greenhouses using the latest technology. This means we work efficiently, with care for the environment and a strong focus on quality. Thanks to smart systems and innovative methods, our plants grow strong and healthy, so you can enjoy them at home for a long time.
