Thursd Is Good for You

Growing up in a flower-embedded family, the connection with flowers happened since the early days I can remember. Though never saw myself ending up working in this industry. But a self-arranged holiday job working for the breeder Rosen Tantau/van Kleef in the Netherlands changed that. After working and seeing different countries and parts of the industry as breeding, sales, marketing, sourcing, and production, such as Kenya, the Netherlands, and Australia I finally got hooked on the growing roses and settled in Naivasha, Kenya with my wife and kids.

The Kas Plateau spans roughly 1,000 hectares and is home to over 850 species of flowering plants, including 39 that are found nowhere else on Earth. Many of these species are endemic and endangered, highlighting the ecological importance of this area. While the flowers themselves are small—about the size of your fingernail—their collective impact is profound. Picture yourself standing on a vast plateau that seems to stretch endlessly, each inch alive with flowers in shades of pink, purple, yellow, and white. For florists, this is nature’s masterclass in plant diversity.
