Michael Perry discovers the versatility of the Cordyline at Duijn-Hove

“They may look exotic, but they are surprisingly easy houseplants.”

In the latest episode of Grower for a Day, Michael Perry, better known as Mr. Plant Geek, visits Decorum grower Duijn-Hove. Here, he discovers the world behind the Cordyline: a striking foliage plant with a tropical appearance that is surprisingly easy to care for.

Duijn-Hove is a true family business, now led by the third generation of the Van Duijn family. A wide range of green and flowering houseplants is grown across four locations. Quality, innovation and a distinctive product range are central to everything the company does.

During his visit, Michael takes a look behind the scenes of Cordyline cultivation. He discovers how much attention goes into every plant and sees the care and selection required before a Cordyline may carry the Decorum label. Only plants that meet the highest quality standards are selected.

The episode shows that a distinctive appearance and ease of care go together perfectly. With its colourful, architectural foliage, the Cordyline is a true eye-catcher in any interior, while the plant requires very little care. It is precisely this combination that makes it popular with both consumers and professionals.

With Grower for a Day, Decorum offers a glimpse behind the scenes at the people behind the product. By joining inspiring industry professionals such as Michael Perry, it becomes clear just how much knowledge, craftsmanship and passion are required to grow top-quality plants day after day.
