Now that we have introduced ourselves, it is time to say goodbye !

I know, that is a weird title.  But we are saying goodbye to our old location.

During this summer, we plan on moving to a new location in Barrhead.

So maybe, as a way of closing off a 15 year old chapter, we will take a trip back in time and enjoy some fond memories.


Our very first crop were about 4000 poinsettias.  Not an easy job if you have never done this before.  But somehow they turned out okay because we kept doing this for the coming Christmas seasons.  For Koen it was quite interesting to start selling these plants in English !


Having your own sign displayed in front of your store, gives you a very proud feeling.


Doing our own seeding of bedding plants proved to be harder than it looked.  But over the years the little seed bar we started with, was replaced by more fancier seeders.

 We have grown some pretty nice hang baskets these past years.  


Our "setup" to bring the town baskets where they have to be hung up.

Here is our stop for our first "historical look-back".  We need to dig in the old shoe box and find some pictures where we were still young !

Stay tuned.
