Sustainability at Berg Roses - Responsible rose cultivation

Berg Roses is renowned for its exceptional roses – from Sophia Loren to the impressive Avalanche line, including Avalanche, Avalanche Peach and Avalanche Sweet. The characteristic wax roses are also cultivated with the utmost care. Sustainability is a central pillar within the company. With modern cultivation techniques, careful water use and natural crop protection, Berg Roses works daily to cultivate with respect for people, plants and the environment.

Berg Roses

Berg Roses is a genuine family business that has been in existence since 1900. The current owner took over the business in 2007. He is the fourth generation to run the nursery. The high quality of the roses is the result of knowledge passed down from generation to generation, a passion for roses and highly committed employees. Throughout the year, the roses are cut twice a day, when they are just right, so that you can enjoy them at home for as long as possible.

Berg Roses ensures that people and nature are taken into account. The roses are certified for MPS-A (protection), MPS-GAP (traceability, safety and hygiene) and MPA-Socially Qualified (sustainability and the environment). That is why we have chosen Berg Roses as one of our growers!

Naturally balanced: Japanese quails as crop protectors

A unique and completely natural part of the sustainable approach is the use of Japanese quails. These quails roam freely in the greenhouses and act as natural enemies of various insects and pests. This has important advantages:

Less chemical control
A healthier growing environment
Natural balance in the greenhouse
Optimal plant condition and flower quality

This form of biological crop protection fits perfectly with Berg Roses' vision of working as environmentally friendly as possible without compromising on quality.

Smart water management for sustainable growth

Berg Roses uses modern irrigation and recirculation systems. Water is administered efficiently, reused and filtered where necessary. This approach ensures:

minimal water loss
precision fertilisation
healthy root development
consistent plant quality for all varieties

This is essential for premium roses such as Sophia Loren, the Avalanche series and the specially treated wax roses.

Energy-efficient greenhouse technology

Berg Roses uses the latest climate control technologies to keep energy consumption low and growing conditions optimal. These include:

energy-saving screen cloths
smart use of lighting
modern climate control

The result: sustainable cultivation and strong, consistent flowers that meet the highest market standards.
