About us

HISTORY

After 70 years in cultivation of flower bulbs, we started in 1970 a wholesale company and the preparation of Iris, Lily's and Tulips. A few years later we stopped with the flower bulb cultivation of Tulips. We have put our focus on preparation and on wholesale of Iris, Lily and gladiolus. A few years later we set up a program concerning Iris breeding. In 2000 we started with Lily breeding. In 2006 we took over colleague Gladiolus exporter. Our main products now are Iris, Lily and Gladiolus. For all these products, we have test programs for better preparation and preservation, to maintain good quality bulbs for whole year cultivation.

IRIS

Iris harvest begins in August. The harvested clean bulbs then come to our company, where they undergo monitoring and quality checks. The bulbs will be stored at +30 degrees Celsius, with a minimum of 2 weeks to a maximum of 50 weeks. Bulb Iris is in a resting stage at +30 degrees Celsius. After this resting stage the bulbs undergo a temperature treatment for flowering, depending on the region, the plant date and the plant conditions. After all the treatments the bulbs can be delivered to the customers with climate conditioned transport.

Bot flowerbulbs has also developed a method for transport of Iris by -1.5 degrees Celsius, to combine the transport of the Iris and the Lilies, which enables an efficient transport.

LILIUM

The Lilium harvest starts in October till December depending on the variety. On arrival of the bulbs in our company, the bulbs will undergo a quality check. After these checks, they are stored in the climate rooms. After acclimatisation the bulbs will be disinfected and packed for long storage. The packing of the Lilium is fully automatic. Thereafter our qualified staff perform an extra after check. The Lilium bulbs will be stored for a minimum of 6 weeks in cooling rooms to interrupt their dormancy. The packed Lilium bulbs are stored for a maximum of 13 months before they are planted. The required freezing time will be calculated using sugar measurements.

GLADIOLUS

The Gladiolus harvest starts in November till December. On arrival of the bulbs in our company, the bulbs will undergo a quality check. They will have an additional drying period. They finally will be stored at 3-4 degrees Celsius. The Gladiolus storage period can run up to a maximum of 13 months.

Bot flower bulbs collaborates with a company specialized in gladiolus bulb. With their assistance we select the plant material, that is exported to Syria , where the young material will grow to the final deliverable bulb. Harvesting starts in November till December. We receive the Syrian bulbs in February and in March in our company. These gladiolus bulbs have more content, weight and quality because of the good climate conditions compared to the conditions of the Gladiolus bulbs of Dutch origin. Therefore Syrian Gladiolus bulbs result into higher quality flowers with a much bigger stem and a longer ear full with flowers.
