Dutch-based Rijnbeek Perennials aims to make the horticultural supply chain more environmentally friendly by going 100 per cent peat-free. As it continues its sustainability journey, the Rijnbeek team is busy working with Plantics BV, a producer of home-compostable, plastic-free DOPA pots.

The arrival of spring in Europe has Marcel van Vemde, director of Rijnbeek Perennials, feeling positive about the coming season.
