From June 3 to 6, 2025, the world of lilies takes center stage at the annual Dutch Lily Days. This event offers breeders, growers and traders the opportunity to meet and exchange knowledge on the latest trends and developments. The growing interest in double-flowered lilies will be one of the main topics of discussion.
The Dutch Lily Days will experience its thirteenth edition in 2025. Like previous years, the event is a unique opportunity for fellow professionals to discuss the innovations and challenges of the lily market. It is the moment to discover how far the sector is in developing more sustainable and resistant varieties, what new varieties are available and what the market opportunities are for pollen-free and double-flowered lilies.
Emergence of double-flowered
Especially the attention for double-flowered lilies is expected to be high. Foreign countries are reacting very positively to the arrival of these almost peony-like varieties and the acreage is therefore increasing considerably. The emergence of double-flowered varieties is playing out in almost all groups, such as the LAs, Orientals and OTs. Double-flowered lilies are a welcome addition to the wide range available in the market.
