Pioneers in organic bulbs
John and Johanna Huiberts are pioneers in organic flower bulb cultivation. Where they once used chemical agents, they made a conscious decision to take a different path around 2010. They immersed themselves in soil biology and switched entirely to natural cultivation. Today, they grow about 15 million organic flower bulbs annually on 75 hectares, without artificial fertilizers or pesticides.

The result? A living soil full of worms, insects, and fungi. Water is absorbed better, pests have less of a chance, and birds help out in the ecosystem.

Did you know that only 0.24% of all flower bulbs in the Netherlands are grown organically? By choosing a Huiberts flower bulb, you are consciously choosing biodiversity, future-proof agriculture, and a bulb that has grown with the help of nature – not at its expense.

Plant flower bulbs in the autumn, between October and December, and make sure they are in the ground before the first frost. This gives them enough cold to bloom well and time to develop strong roots.

Dig a hole that is two to three times as deep as the bulb is tall (usually about 10–15 cm). Depth is important: it protects the bulb from frost, prevents dehydration, and ensures sturdy stems. Place the bulbs with the point facing up and leave some space between each bulb. Cover them with soil and water them if the weather remains dry for a long period.

Flower bulbs aren't just for the garden – they also do excellently in pots. Depending on the size of the pot, you can use almost any type of flower bulb. Make sure the pot has a hole in the bottom so that excess water can drain away properly. Bulbs don't like 'wet feet': if they stay too wet in winter, they can rot and fail to sprout well.

For a long flowering period, you can create a so-called 'bulb lasagna': plant in layers, with late-blooming varieties (such as tulips) at the bottom, mid-season bloomers (such as daffodils) above them, and early bloomers (such as crocuses) on top. In a pot, you can plant bulbs closer together than in the ground – this actually creates a full, lush display. Place the pot in a cool spot outside and protect it with bubble wrap or burlap during severe frost.

That is how you can bring spring to your balcony, patio, or windowsill with just a few well-planted pots.

There are two ways to use flowers from bulbs: you can leave them in the ground so they (potentially) return, or you can harvest them with the bulb attached for a vase or bouquet. Both options have their own charm – it depends on the variety and your plans for the garden.

If you leave the bulbs in the ground, it is important to let the foliage die back naturally. This allows the bulb to store energy for a new bloom. However, not all flower bulbs come back every year. Botanical tulips, daffodils, grape hyacinths, and alliums are good examples of varieties that, with a little care, can return year after year. Many large tulip varieties (such as double or fringed tulips), on the other hand, are often less reliable as perennials—they provide the best results in the first year.

If you harvest flowers with the bulb attached, you get an extra-long vase life and a unique, natural look. Ideal for cutting gardens or meadow bouquets. Just keep in mind that you are removing the bulb, so you only get one season of blooms.

Do you want to enjoy your bulbs for a long time? Then choose varieties suitable for naturalizing – and give them a spot where they can grow undisturbed.
