Carlos van der Veek was born amongst the daffodils. His father, a renowned daffodil hybridizer, Karel van der Veek, began collecting specialty daffodils. Carlos later continued to add to the collection, which today contains over 2,000 varieties. He is described as a “walking encyclopedia” of daffodils. He co-founded Fluwel in 2007, which specializes in bringing beautiful bulbs to markets across the world.
