Express delivery, direct from the fields of our growers to our customers. No extra steps, no unnecessary stops. All of the freshness.
Maximum confidence
Our local experts know the best growers, and visit the fields on a regular basis. Buy fresh from source with total confidence in quality and volume.
Good news
Our flowers have fewer miles to travel, fewer days to be kept cold. The result: higher quality, lower costs, and good news for our planet.
Our unique field-to-shop concept
Buying “fresh from source” means you get to skip all the costly, time consuming steps. Instead of gathering flowers in a cooled central warehouse, auctioning them off, and finally transporting them to their final destination, we keep it smart (and simple). We ship directly to you.
1
You can buy directly from the fields of growers worldwide. Our local team does regular inspections and checks quality and volumes on your behalf.
2
After harvest we arrange immediate transport, using modern shipping methods, directly to the destination you specify.
3
You get the freshest flowers, without any unnecessary (and expensive) steps, direct from field to shop.
