Calla, also known as Zantedeschia, is an elegant flower with a stylish look and comes in colors such as white, red, yellow, pink, purple, orange, green, black, and bicolor. From Decorum's grower Future Flowers who specializes in year-round production of these flowers, there is a surety of a constant supply of callas for the brand’s astute customers.

Also, a unique feature of Future Flowers is that the grower delivers these calla flowers in different ways. They can be delivered either in water or dry in boxes, depending on one's requirements.

With peonies, according to Decorum, one makes a nice start to the summer in their home. Tulips also have a similar effect, one would say! And just as summer makes its arrival, Borst Bloembollen, a Decorum grower has, since 1946 been delivering beautiful tulips, and now also grows amazing peonies that come in cheerful colors like soft yellow, romantic white, candy pink, or dark red. Plus, the scent of these peonies is particularly charming and deliciously sweet.

From Central Asia where its origin lies, the ranunculus also has a home at Decorum with André Knoppert & Zn delivering these flowers in a diverse range of colors including white, yellow, orange, pink, red, and purple.

Just like all other members of the brand, André Knoppert & Zn also went through Decorum’s rigorous selection guaranteeing that the flowers grown are of the highest quality. The grower changes seasons of Ranunculus with a wide range of the more autumn-like disbudded Chrysanthemums.

Kalanchoë, an extremely strong succulent with brightly colored flowers in a wide range, is known, and adored by many. It is also available as cut Kalanchoë, which many do not know about. At Decorum’s grower, Hofland Flower Group, a well-known name in the freesia world, one can also find the cut Kalanchoë flowers grown all year round.

A vase with these flowers has great ornamental value in itself. It offers no less than four weeks of delight and is ideal for different arrangements including during weddings or other occasions where flowers need to stay beautiful for a longer period.

Decorum Growers for Plants

Plants, also, make up the very essence of the Decorum brand. Its many carefully selected growers have hundreds of plant varieties that anyone would find beguiling to have in their living or work spaces.

Calathea, for instance, comes from the jungles of the Amazon in South America, and the plant can be found at Vreugdenhil Bulbs & Plants (also a grower of Amaryllis and Zantedeschia, among others). This plant can also be found at JoGrow, also a grower of a broad plant assortment containing Aglaonema, Areca, Codiaeum, Polyscias, Sansevieria, and Schefflera, as well as Hydrangeas. Practically, most tropical green houseplants can be found in JoGrow’s assortment.

They say with Cyclamen one brings color into their home. Cyclamen simply brightens up the living spaces and also gives off moisture when the air in the room becomes dry. An easy-to-grow and care-for plant, Cyclamen is grown by Decorum’s Ammerlaan-Sosef, a grower that also produces celosia and Primula obconica.

Other Decorum growers, Ten Have Plant, known to be the true Campanula specialist who distinguishes themselves through exclusivity, flexibility, and customization, as well as grower Vreugdenhil Bulbs & Plants, also cultivate Cyclamen.

Crassula, also known as the Jade plant, is another ideal plant, especially for those who have limited time to take care of plants. It is an easy-maintenance succulent largely supplied by Winco Holland, another Decorum brand member.

Winco Holland is in essence a specialist in cacti and succulents, with production companies in Spain and the Netherlands. The grower has a large collection of plants topping at least 1,500 types, of which 600 species are always available.

When you picture a pollen-free, double-leaf floral beauty that resembles a beautiful large rose, with two equally beautiful flowers in one, then the roselily is, definitely, one of the flowers that will come to mind. This is a unique variant of the well-known lily (Lilium), and is supplied by the Decorum brand, through grower, Van Schie, who delivers them in various types and colors, as well as high quality, and with very large flowers. This grower generally focuses on potted lilies as well as Chrysanne® pot chrysanthemums.

Easy to grow and maintain, and air-purifying, Spathiphyllum (peace lily) is native to Colombia and Venezuela and is a popular plant, and for good reason; the contrast between the white bracts and the fresh green foliage is just beautiful in its own ways. Grower Van der Voort Potplanten has been a member of Decorum since 2010 and is a specialist in peace lily cultivation.
