Meet the Grower; Germini grower LG Flowers
In the heart of Dutch greenhouse farming, in Pijnacker, is Germini grower LG Flowers - one of the largest and most progressive gerbera growers in the world. With more than 10 ha of growing area and an annual production of more than 95 million gerberas, top quality flowers are produced here every day, with a strong focus on sustainability and innovation.
Family business with vision, color and green innovation
LG Flowers is a modern family business now run by the third generation. What once began as a small-scale nursery has grown into a leading player in ornamental horticulture. The family culture can be felt in all layers of the company: commitment, short lines of communication and a strong focus on quality and continuity.
With a team of more than 100 employees - divided between cultivation, breeding, logistics and marketing - they work daily to develop and deliver distinctive Germini's.
Grown sustainably and as organically as possible
LG Flowers operates with a strong focus on organic and sustainable cultivation methods. The use of natural enemies for pest control, the use of renewable energy, water recycling and the limitation of chemical agents are central to its operations. It also invests heavily in sustainable packaging and environmentally friendly logistics.
This approach contributes to a lower carbon footprint without compromising on quality or delivery reliability.
Technological innovation: AI in the sorting process
Innovation is deeply embedded in the way LG Flowers operates. Artificial intelligence and advanced cameras are used in the sorting process. These systems sort flowers based on length, color, maturity and quality, ensuring maximum accuracy, speed and less waste. In addition, the cameras are trained to detect diseases and pests at an early stage, allowing them to intervene quickly and biologically.

Within the assortment of Germini grower LG Flowers, the Punki line occupies a special place. These mini gerberas are distinguished by their compact size, bright colors and playful character. The Punkis are bred in-house, creating unique characteristics that perfectly meet the needs of florists and end users.
Tradition and future in balance
Germini grower LG Flowers combines the strength of a family business with modern technology and sustainable ambitions. By continuously investing in people, processes and environmentally conscious solutions, a valuable contribution is made to the future of floriculture.
