Check out all the products seen by me, Peter van Delft, on the Aalsmeer market in the Netherlands, the world's largest display of flowers and plants.

Every day I look around at trader Barendsen Flowers at Royal FloraHolland Aalsmeer, the world's largest flower auction. With an auction of around 34.5 million flowers and plants a day, I like to spot novelties and special products that are new and/or just coming into production.

I am always on the lookout for new flowers, specialties, novelties, and products coming into the season. Working in the Dutch flower industry enables me to see the prettiest flowers in the world, and I can say I really love it!
