荷兰 范哈斯特‑内瓦达花卉球茎 Van Haaster‑Nevada – 350 余种球茎的出口商

五十年代起家的家族生意

这家公司叫 Van Haaster-Nevada，办公室和仓库都在荷兰南荷兰省的德齐尔克，落在球茎区里。英文网站上的自我介绍很短：五十年代作为郁金香、风信子和水仙的种植户起家，种了几年，方向就从种植挪到了出口，卖的是花球、块茎和植株。荷兰语网站讲的是同一件事。

公司形式是 B.V.，也就是荷兰的私人有限责任公司，署名写成 Van Haaster-Nevada B.V.。荷兰做球茎生意、名字里带范哈斯特的不止这一家，希勒霍姆的 H.M. van Haaster & Zonen 是另一家，自产加批发加出口都做，德齐尔克本地还有一家 Kees van Haaster en Zn.。找货或者谈生意之前，先把名字对清楚。

现在管事的是一家人。Otto van Haaster 负责采购与销售，Doesjka van Haaster 管财务，Tanya Roodenburg-Kovalko 专门做俄罗斯方向——英文页面上把俄罗斯列进了出口地区，这位销售的名字正好对得上。

三个品类，三百多个名字

目录分三类：百合、郁金香、牡丹。按条目算，百合 96 个、郁金香 222 个、牡丹 32 个，合起来 350 个条目；跨品类重名的只有两个（Litouwen 和 Tresor 既是百合也是郁金香），所以不同的品种名是 347 个。

筛选维度做得很细。百合分八个组：亚洲系、LA 杂交、LO 杂交、LO 与 OT 杂交、东方系、东方重瓣、OT 杂交、OT 与亚洲系杂交，另配九种颜色、十五个长度档和三种状态。郁金香九个组、二十九种颜色；牡丹三个组——杂交、伊藤、芍药，各配十二种颜色。每个品种页上写明组别、花色、生长期、用途、株高和球径规格，规格书还能直接下载。

举两个例子。百合 Master 属 OT 杂交，粉花，生长期九十天，株高一百到一百一十五厘米，规格按花苞数分四档；郁金香 Davenport 是 Fringed 组，红黄双色，页面上标出适合五度和九度两种催花温度。首页摆出来的是每类的主打：百合有 Scotland、Provecho、Fredo、Arbatax，郁金香有 Rebellious Yellow、Pink Sky、Circuit、First Price、Alison Bradley，牡丹有 Mother’s Choice、Red Charm、Adolphe Rousseau。精选页另外挑了十个，White Step 和 Double Dutch Fluoriet 都在里面。

从地里到冷库的每一步

质检是这家公司自己最看重的一环。公司设有专门的质量部门，逐批检查尺寸、健康状况和生根情况；供货的种植户那里他们也常去，货还在地里长着的时候先做一次初评；从起收到送进自家仓库，中间每一步都盯着。

出口的球在每个发育阶段都要检查，主要供切花生产用的预处理球茎和块茎。公司有一批现代化的恒温调控车间，从入库到出货全程自己控制；小批量的包装订单也接，按客户的意思重新分装。

货源横跨两个半球，北半球的产地是欧洲本地，南半球的种植区也在采买。发货走陆路、海运和空运，用的是调温运输；公司跟几家有口碑的货运代理合作，出口单据和植物检疫证书齐备，每一批货都能追踪到具体位置。

库肯霍夫的春天

每年春天，库肯霍夫的花田里都有他们的球。二〇二二年那一季，园子来了超过一百万人次；他们供的郁金香和水仙球在那片花海里拼出成片的颜色，公司也像往年一样在园中摆了展位。

同年的消息说，新一季的球已经开始往园里种了。从起收到下地，中间的时间是算好的，这正是他们吃饭的手艺。库肯霍夫二〇二二年三月廿四日开园，一直开到五月十五日。

仓库墙上的三面旗

德齐尔克的仓库外墙朝装卸场那面挂着花旗。前一年挂了两条，第二年又添了第三条，旗面用的是黄、白、红三种花色，三条旗上各写着一个百合品种的名字：Nashville、Litouwen 和 Sunderland。第二条消息里还拍下了从路边看过去的样子。

仓库正面的金属墙上钉着公司名牌，名字是 Van Haaster-Nevada b.v.，下面的花灯箱里是黄水仙、白百合和红花。荷兰语网站上的新闻停在二〇二二年六月，但产品目录一直在动：百合分类最后改到二〇二五年十一月，郁金香到二〇二五年三月，牡丹到二〇二五年二月。

A Family Business That Started in the Fifties

The company is Van Haaster-Nevada, with its office and warehouse in De Zilk in the province of Zuid Holland, well inside the Dutch bulb district. The English site describes itself in a few lines: the business began in the 1950s as a grower of tulips, hyacinths and daffodils, and after a few years the emphasis moved from growing to exporting flower bulbs, tubers and plants. The Dutch site tells the same story.

The legal form is a B.V., a Dutch private limited company, and the name is written out as Van Haaster-Nevada B.V. More than one Dutch bulb business carries the Van Haaster name. H.M. van Haaster & Zonen in Hillegom is a different firm that grows, wholesales and exports, and Kees van Haaster en Zn. is another one based in De Zilk. Get the names straight before you order.

The family still runs it. Otto van Haaster handles purchasing and sales, Doesjka van Haaster is on the financial side, and Tanya Roodenburg-Kovalko looks after Russia, which is one of the markets the English page lists.

Three Groups, Three Hundred and Forty-Seven Names

The catalogue is split into three: lilies, tulips and peonies. Counting entries, there are 96 lilies, 222 tulips and 32 peonies, 350 in all. Only two names appear in two groups at once, so the number of different variety names is 347.

The filters are finely drawn. Lilies are sorted into eight groups: Asiatic, LA Hybrid, LO Hybrid, LO and OT Hybrid, Oriental, Oriental Double, OT Hybrid and OT with Asiatic, with nine colours, fifteen stem lengths and three statuses. Tulips run to nine groups and twenty-nine colours; peonies to three groups, Hybrid, Itoh and Lactiflora, each with twelve colours. Every variety page states the group, the colour, the growing period, the use, the stem length and the bulb size, and the specification sheet can be downloaded.

Two examples. The lily Master is an OT Hybrid in pink, with a ninety day growing period, a stem length of one hundred to one hundred and fifteen centimetres and bud sizes given in four steps. The tulip Davenport is a Fringed in red and yellow, and the page states that it suits forcing temperatures of five and nine degrees. The home page fronts the ones they push hardest: for lilies Scotland, Provecho, Fredo and Arbatax; for tulips Rebellious Yellow, Pink Sky, Circuit, First Price and Alison Bradley; for peonies Mother’s Choice, Red Charm and Adolphe Rousseau. The featured page picks out ten more, including White Step and Double Dutch Fluoriet.

Every Step from the Field to the Cold Store

Quality control is what the company leans on hardest. There is a dedicated quality department that checks every batch for size, health and rooting. The growers they buy from are visited regularly, and a first assessment is made while the crop is still standing in the field. From lifting to delivery into their own warehouse, the process is watched all the way through.

Bulbs for export are examined at each stage of development. The main business is prepared flower bulbs and tubers for cut flower production. The company runs a set of modern climate controlled units and keeps control of the whole way from intake to dispatch, and it also takes small packing orders and packs them the way the customer wants them.

The stock comes from both hemispheres: European growing areas in the north and southern hemisphere plantings as well. Shipments go by road, sea and air in conditioned transport, the company works with a few well regarded forwarders, and the export papers and health certificates are complete, so any consignment can be traced to exactly where it is.

Spring at Keukenhof

Every spring their bulbs are in the beds at Keukenhof. In the 2022 season the garden drew more than a million visitors, and the tulip and daffodil bulbs they supplied made up a whole sea of colour in the beds, with their stand in the park as in every other year.

A post from the same year has them planting the bulbs for the new season. The timing between lifting and going into the ground is calculated in advance, which is the trade they make their living from. Keukenhof opened on 24 March 2022 and stayed open until 15 May.

Three Banners on the Warehouse Wall

On the wall of the De Zilk warehouse that faces the loading dock there are flower banners. Two were hung the year before and a third was added the following year, carrying the names of three lily varieties, Nashville, Litouwen and Sunderland, in yellow, white and red. A second post shows the view from the road.

The company name is fixed to the metal front of the warehouse as Van Haaster-Nevada b.v., with light boxes below showing a yellow daffodil, a white lily and a red flower. The news on the Dutch site stops in June 2022, but the product catalogue keeps moving: the lily classification was last changed in November 2025, tulips in March 2025 and peonies in February 2025.
