YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE FOR THE FOLLOWING SELECTIONS
Once every month or so, we will post one of our selections in our 'showroom'
Here you will find extra information, like forcing time, flowers per bulb size, length of stem and more
Forcing time is difficult to measure as our greenhouse doesn't have a minimal temperature setting, and therefor as a reference, the Oriental variety 'Le Reve' is planted as well
Under normal circumstances 'Le Reve' needs about 75 days to flower after planting, so in that regard we can figure out the forcing time of the seedling in our 'Showroom.
In case you want to have additional information about the selection on this page, please send us your question('s) to our page 'Contact Us'
