Beekenkamp celebrates 75th anniversary during Flower Trials

Beekenkamp Ornamentals will make a grand appearance during Flower Trials in celebration of its 75th anniversary. Visitors will be taken on a journey back in time, where Beekenkamp’s rich history and craftsmanship take center stage, while also looking ahead to the future. As a reliable and stable family business, innovation, continuity, and sustainability have been the common thread for generations.

A highlight this year is the focus product Petunia Tea. In a presentation with a real wow factor, several new Petunia Tea Upright varieties will be introduced. This series stands out for its strong USPs: a compact range, growth without pinching, day-length neutrality, a high number of plants per square meter, and fast flowering combined with good leaf volume. It is a forward-looking concept that perfectly meets the needs of professional growers, retail, and trade.

There is also plenty to discover in Beekenkamp Ornamentals’ Trial Garden. Visitors can once again expect the latest innovations, surprising mixed pots, and a specially© Beekenkamp Plants designed row of products available for testing ahead of the next season. In this way, Beekenkamp Ornamentals demonstrates that experience and innovation go hand in hand—now for 75 years, with a clear vision for the future.

During Flower Trials in week 24, the Fleurostar will traditionally be awarded—the prize for the plant with the greatest wow factor and commercial appeal. This year, Beekenkamp Ornamentals is a strong contender with Petunia Tea Rosette Blend. This remarkable petunia from the High Tea series stands out for its soft, creamy petals and deep purple-pink center. Subtle color changes throughout the season create a surprising overall appearance.

Visitors are warmly invited to admire this Fleurostar contender, as well as all other varieties during the Flower Trials from June 9 to 12, 2026, at Beekenkamp Ornamentals, Korte Kruisweg 157 in Maasdijk. The doors are open from Tuesday to Thursday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and on Friday from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
