Plantentuin Esveld is a nursery and garden centre in Boskoop, Netherlands. It grows thousands of plant species on site, organically, and buys in plants from dozens of specialist growers. Garden design and planting advice is also offered, with a half-hour consultation whose fee is refunded as a voucher for the plant centre.

Customers are garden enthusiasts who buy plants in person at the nursery or through the webshop, which lists the largest plant range in the Netherlands according to the company. Revenue comes from plant sales, advice sessions and paid events such as garden tours, a themed autumn walk and border-design workshops for groups of at least four people. An on-site coffee and tea house, Yume, is operated alongside the plant centre.

The nursery has been run by the Esveld family for generations and is open Monday to Saturday from 9:00 to 17:00, with Sunday opening by reservation for groups of 20 or more. The company buys in plants from its own suppliers and offers a delivery time of a little over a week for plants not in stock.

Product: Organically grown garden plants sold at the nursery, plant shop and webshop, plus garden design advice, workshops and garden tours.
