Conifer nursery with more than 200 hectares of craftsmanship

We are no ordinary conifer nursery. On more than 200 hectares in Molenschot, we grow conifers with attention to quality, structure and appearance. Every conifer that leaves our nursery has been given time to really take root and become strong. This is reflected in the shape, density and size. We supply landscapers, garden architects, landscaping contractors and garden builders who do not want to compromise on quality. As a family business, we work with a committed team that understands your profession. We speak your language, think along with you and deliver what suits the project. Whether it is a sleek thujah hedge for a modern garden or a mature yew for a high-end project, at our nursery you will find the range and knowledge to do it right.

Why professionals choose our conifer nursery

As a gardener or landscaper, you want certainty. Certainty about size, quality and delivery. As a specialised conifer nursery, we have been offering exactly that to professionals throughout the Netherlands and beyond for many years.

We grow conifers largely in open ground on our 200 hectares in Molenschot. This gives us the space and time to let plants grow really strong and large. Our emphasis is on larger and mature sizes. Because when you as a professional deliver a project, the result has to be there right away. A conifer that still needs years to reach its final shape does not fit in.

Thuja occidentalis and Thuja plicata are two of the most popular species in our range. Both species grow quickly, form a dense green wall and are excellent as privacy dividers or windbreaks. We grow these species in several sizes, so you can always get the size that suits the design. Besides thuja, we also grow yew, Chamaecyparis and other species for those looking for something unique. View our full range of conifers for an overview of the species and sizes available.

What further distinguishes us as a conifer nursery is that we do everything in-house. From production and sales to transport and delivery. That means short lines of communication, personal contact and reliable planning. We have been working with the same gardeners, green contractors and landscapers who know what they can expect from us for years. These long-term relationships say it all about the way we work.

Our conifer range: strong in form, proven in quality

Choosing a conifer is more than picking a species. It’s about the right combination of growth rate, winter hardiness, density and the final shape you want to achieve. As a conifer nursery with years of experience, we help you make that choice right.

Taxus baccata is one of the most versatile conifers in our range. Slow-growing, compact and green all year round. Taxus prunes extremely well and gives a sleek, neat look that suits both classic and modern garden designs. We grow yews in a variety of sizes, from smaller starter plants to mature specimens that immediately form a fully-fledged hedge.

Thuja is the choice for those who want quick results. This conifer grows rapidly, is undemanding and forms a full, green separation in a short time. We grow thuja in several varieties and sizes, including the larger sizes required by gardeners for projects where an immediate finished look is desired.

For special projects or gardens with their own character, as a conifer nursery we also offer less common species. Think of Chamaecyparis in various shapes, or conifers with a different colour or growth habit that give a garden instant character. For applications around privacy and separation, you can also take a look at our page on trees as yard fences or our range of hedge plants to complement conifers in the design.

We supply professionals throughout the Netherlands and also work for projects abroad from our facility in England. The quality we grow is suitable for the most demanding jobs. Feel free to contact us for personal advice on which conifer is best suited to your project.
