Founder & Vision

My name is Wessel van Gerven, fourth generation within the van Gerven family.
In 2023, I founded Gerven Bulbs as a new business inspired by a family tradition in the bulb industry that started in 1960. Growing up in the Dutch Bulb Region, my first experiences in the bulb industry began on my grandfather’s nursery and later continued while working for a local bulb grower.

Sustainable Development Goals

I choose to run my business responsibly — from carbon neutral shipping to sustainably sourced packaging. Discover how I'm working towards a greener future, one order at a time.

Why Gerven Bulbs

Gerven Bulbs is an online flower bulb webshop for true garden enthusiasts.
We carefully curate our assortment, focusing on quality, craftsmanship, and reliable garden performance — specialising in authentic varieties, never substitutes or alternatives.

My vision

My vision is for every garden enthusiast to shop with complete confidence — knowing that what they order is exactly what will grow and bloom in their garden. By earning that trust, one gardener at a time, I aim to grow Gerven Bulbs into one of the leading flower bulb webshops in the UK and Holland.

Why Green

The fresh green colour of Gerven Bulbs symbolises a fresh new beginning, representing both nature and the launch of my brand. Inspired by my family tradition, I created a modern and innovative flower bulb brand with a fresh vision for the future.

With kind regards, 
Wessel van Gerven
