Sustainable Flower Production: From Soil to Vase
We grow flowers both at Årstiderne at Krogerup in Humlebæk and on our own field in Hornbæk. Prioritizing organic, sustainable and Danish flowers is an important part of our work. Therefore, our bouquets consist of a mixture of these depending on what the season offers.
You can find our specific organic and sustainable flower bouquet here . We strive to ensure that all the bouquets we tie are as sustainable as possible. Therefore, you can also choose from our other flower bouquets with a clear conscience.
A Closer Connection Between Earth and Vase
When summer embraces Denmark with its warm rays, we harvest many of our flowers directly from our own fields. This ensures an even closer connection between soil and vase, and you can enjoy flowers that have been grown with love and consideration for the environment with a clear conscience.

Nature's Shift: The Challenges of Sustainability in Denmark's Climate
In Denmark, we face unique challenges when it comes to maintaining consistent sustainable practices throughout the four seasons of the year. Our northern latitude and changing climate leave their mark on floriculture and require an adaptability that matches nature's changes.
Summer's Abundance and Winter's Calm
Summer brings an abundance of sunshine and warmth, providing optimal conditions for growing flowers. It’s a time when our fields are teeming with life and we can harvest fresh, local flowers in abundance. But when winter brings a blanket of frost and snow across the landscape, the pace slows and the challenges of maintaining sustainability increase.
Respect for the Rhythm of Nature
At Flora Nordica, we recognize the importance of adapting to the rhythm of nature and respecting the limitations that the Danish climate imposes on us. We strive to be as sustainable as possible, but we also recognize that sustainability is not always a linear journey. It is about finding a balance between our desire to be as environmentally friendly as possible and the realities we face in our northern climate.
A Constant Development Towards Sustainability
By being aware of our challenges and constantly working to improve our practices, we strive to create a more sustainable future for our planet. While we may not always be completely sustainable year-round, we work hard to minimize our environmental impact and maximize our positive impact on nature.
