From growers to machines specialists, florists and beyond – Summerflowers brings everyone together.

A perfect example: Nursery Van Aert working with partner Bercomex. Their Furora Nova machine helps flowers shine with even more quality.

At Summerflowers nursery Bloemenliefde, everything starts with a love for flowers.

Kees Tanis and his wife grow seasonal blooms for the Dutch auctions—but also tend a stunning picking garden that began as a hobby and flourished into something much more. 🌸

Wait… this is a sunflower?! 🌻🔥

Yes — and no, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you.

This is Helianthus Procut Red, and it’s real. Grown right here at Summerflowers nursery de Werd. Velvet petals that glow in the sunlight.
