  About us    
       
"Botanische Orchideeen" started growing
orchids for commercial purposes in 1979.

The first years we mainly imported plants from
tropical regions. For the last ten years however,
we grow our plants from seeds to the flowering
stage.

A lot of our plants grow on cork slabs.
This way the plants grow in their natural manner.
Also we grow on slabs of Epi-Web an at the same
time, it makes it easy to export the plants.
The plants don't have to be unpotted and the roots
don't suffer.
This is clearly and advantage over shipping plants
with bare roots.

Besides growing young plants, we also let some
plants grow to exhibition size.
Being a small nursery, and therefore due to space
limitations, we can only do this to a few plants.

 

Privately, we have a collection of draculas,
of which some are for sale.
For some types you might have to wait though until
we put those up for sale.
We also have a group of pleurothallioide.
To learn more about these plants we have made
several trips to South America; this gave us
a good feel for how these plants like to grow.
Dr. C. A. Luer has described a dracula,
a masdavallia and a lepanthes in honour
of us.
