Anneke Van Pee has been working at Floréac for 38 years, labelling plants with care and precision. But her plant passion doesn’t stop at work—at home, she tends to her beloved carnivorous plants like Nepenthes, Sarracenia, and Dionaea. Fascinated by their insect-catching nature and decorative appeal, she collects rainwater especially for them.

Pot plant cultivation is becoming increasingly sustainable. Growers are embracing innovative techniques such as geothermal heating, LED lighting, and smart climate control to reduce energy consumption. They also opt for organic pest control and resilient plant varieties to support biodiversity. Circular practices like water and substrate recycling, and precision farming further boost sustainability. With these efforts, growers are redefining their methods. At Floréac, we proudly support this green transition by working exclusively with sustainability-driven partners.
