Where does the term Dutch roses come from? Probably because many growers are based in North and South Holland with their nurseries. Moreover, Holland has been a household name in the world since centuries ago. Anyone entering southern Holland from the air from the North Sea will see endless greenhouse complexes, evening beautifully lit with a yellow-orange glow. You won't find that anywhere in the world, so many greenhouses in a densely populated area where all ornamental plants and vegetables are grown.
Growing flowers, especially roses, is often done in family businesses where several generations pass on their knowledge of growing the world's best roses to the next generation. Here in the Netherlands, they are grown sustainably with a passion for the beauty of the flower. If you come into the greenhouse and speak to the grower, you will notice how passionately they talk about growing roses.

The beginnings of Dutch roses
Growing roses predates our era, for thousands of years people have cherished the beauty of the rose around the world.
The first documented cultivation of roses in the Netherlands dates back to the second half of the 16th century, and the first export of Dutch roses was to England. These roses came from the rose gardens of the Oranges in the 17th and 18th centuries, which they had planted at their castles. This was the basis for Dutch rose cultivation and the accumulation of knowledge about varieties and their crossing. No wonder, then, that many rose breeding companies worldwide have Dutch roots.
