I have been an independent Rose Consultant for over twenty-five years.
I specialize in fine tuning the grow-process of long stemmed roses.

I started this business after selling my own rose growing operation which was successful, for twelve years.

With my own rose growing experience , a wide knowledge of the science of growing roses, as well as a good understanding of the rose and flower market, i have a great deal to offer new and established rose growers.

I am based in the Netherlands and this continues to be my focus. I also consult in lndia, Canada, South Korea, Kazakhstan, lran, Kenya and Armenia. I consult with my clients to examine all the facets of rose growing in order to reach maximum production and quality. We work together to address all the components needed to cultivate a healthy, productive rose crop.



For my clients close to home, I visit their operations weekly or bi-weekly. These short intervals are important in order to closely monitor the growth of the plants and avoid doing crisis intervention where things have gone wrong. For my out of country clients, I offer online and phone support and visit them at
least once per season and/or when the need arises. With modern technology, video and photographs help me to get a grasp on issues facing my clients and their crops and maintain a supportive, preventative relationship.

For all of my clients, as a consultant, I am able to personalize growing options that include but are not limited to:

Deciding on a rose variety for particular climates and markets

Choosing the best-suited growing system

Developíng a watering strategy

Building a nutrient/fertilizer regiment

Creating an optimized greenhouse climate considering temperature andhumidity

Deciding on pest control methods (including the option of biological pest control)

Maintaining healthy cultivation practíces

Providing time-sensitive, efficient cultivation to ensure optimal production

Offering employee training of finalized growing practices.



I encourage you to contact me if these services are of interest to you. I can then set up an appointment and together decide the level of support the interests you, I look forward to helping you build a thriving rose operation in a market that continues to prosper.
