• Arranger: Heleen Valstar

With the authentic Westland sailing ship “10e van Tromp,” the province of South Holland pays tribute to our province’s horticultural sector. From high-tech greenhouses in the Westland to the colorful flower bulb fields in the Bollenstreek: what grows and blooms here reaches millions of people worldwide.

With this historic vessel, we celebrate the craftsmanship, innovation, and passion of the entrepreneurs, researchers, and employees who work every day to shape the future of horticulture.

With warm colors, lush floral arrangements, and unique paintings, the story of horticulture in South Holland literally comes to life.

Boating is about looking ahead and staying on course. The province, businesses, and partners are working together to make the sector more sustainable, improve water quality, and enhance biodiversity.

This is our horticulture, and it’s something to be proud of.
