Flower auction Royal Flora Holland
This Orchids tour takes place only during weeks 23 and 24, in June 2024.
We will meet you at your hotel and drive to the world's largest flower auction, the largest trade building with a floor area (20 million sq. ft.).
At the flower auction, we will first visit the plant section, where we will look at the distribution of Orchid plants, amongst others.
After that, we will explain the Dutch auction system at the auction hall.
The buyers no longer need to be present at the auction room; they can buy remotely from their computer anywhere in the world, but most buyers buy from their company office at the flower auction. This happens from Monday - Friday.
We will also pay a visit to the distribution area of cut flowers, which is located in another area of this massive building!
A visit to a wholesale company is also on our itinerary this morning.
Orchids
After the flower auction visit, we will start visiting several Orchid nurseries, mainly with Phalaenopsis, Dendrobium, and Vanda growers and breeders.
During week 23 and week 24, the nurseries will organize a so-called
'Open House'.
Modern nurseries
The Orchid Phalaenopsis nurseries in Holland are the front runners in advanced technologies in horticulture in Holland.
They use modern transportation technology to transport the young and adult plants through the greenhouses.
They all use additional technology like LED and high-pressure sodium light to improve the quality and flowering of the Orchids plants.
