Van Leeuwen Flowers specialises in the cultivation of chrysanthemums. In a modern greenhouse at Scherpenhoeklaan in Poeldijk, Peet van Leeuwen and his son Dennis continue the family business that has existed since 1962. Van Leeuwen Flowers currently grows two varieties: the large, white fluff chrysanthemum Antonov and the stuffed, yellow-coloured Piotr.

Dennis: "For a long time, I did cycling at a high level, working only a few hours a week at the nursery. I had my father's aspiration to always want to be the best with cycling and later started applying it in my work as well. The enjoyment of my work at the nursery increased more and more, after which it became clear to me that this is where my future lay. That's why I decided to join the company in 2019."

Peet: "Developments in horticulture are going very fast and Dennis has entered our company with a young fresh outlook. Although I have left him free to make his own choices, I think it is tremendously cool that he is taking up the challenge.''

''Reliability and constantly striving to deliver top-quality flowers are our key principles. This aligns perfectly with what VannoVa stands for."
