We know exactly which are the best; we have been looking after tulips for years and we will willingly share our knowledge with you.

Long in a vase

Our tulips are grown in a traditional way – on peat. We also offer another, hydroponic’ production method – in water

Types

Currently we are growing over 60 types of standard tulips and about 25 exclusive ones. The number of types may vary from season to season

Bulbs

All bulbs we offer come from Holland or New Zealand

It takes 15-26 days for a tulip to grow, then it is cut off. Daily growth – 2-3 cm

Production on a large scale

Our technological background…

…is based in Ociąż, near Kalisz. This is where advanced, automated and the biggest production in Poland operates. High technology enables us to produce 20 thousand tulips per hour.

Our facility construction is based on the Bom Group company solutions. The greenhouse is fully automated; which means there is no need for human engagement all the time. Tables with tulips enter the sorting plant; we can house 2million tulips in one place at the same time.

The greenhouses is divided into 2 parts; each 2500 m². They consist of 7 naves – 8m width, 6 m height. Cooling chambers cover 1300 m²and logistics area covers 3400 m². Trench heating licensed from Van Zaal company as well as mobile, aluminium tables have been installed in the greenhouse. Tables entering the hall move on roll conveyors. Dutch technology is used in the workshop to prepare flowers for sale (bunches in foil sleeves). The whole system is automated just like irrigating the substrate in cases with plants exposed to grow.

Production seasons

The main production season is from January till end of May (12 million tulips). This is when we prepare deliveries for supermarkets like Lidl, Polo, Dino. Autumn production between September and December delivers around 1,5 million tulips, this is so called ‘niche production’ – bulbs come from New Zealand.

We want to deliver fresh flowers to each Polish household every day and thanks to our huge production capacity we can do it via supermarkets and chain stores.
