Our story

Our roots go back to 1946 when founder Cor Slijkerman started cultivating vegetable crops. With the rise of greenhouses, he transitioned to growing gerberas and pot chrysanthemums. Under the leadership of his son, Johan Slijkerman (2nd generation), the company made the switch to Kalanchoë, and in 2001, we began breeding our own varieties.

Today, Stefan Slijkerman (3rd generation) leads our internationally operating company, continuing our legacy of passion, quality and innovation in the world of Kalanchoë.
