Allium Kronkel



The long, green, curly stems are Allium Kronkel (Kronkel is Dutch for curly). Allium is in the onion genus, and though it smells bad when you cut it...it looks looks so lovely in all types of containers!

Oranjegekte!




Oranjekgekte is Dutch for ‘Orange Craze,’ which is exactly what we have here at The Dutch Connection!  We are so excited the Netherlands is in the World Cup Finals and are showing our support by making orange bouquets in the shops. So, stop by and pick up yours to cheer on the Dutch footballers!

Oranje (orange) is the Netherlands’ national color. The royal family—The House of Oranje-Nassau—and the country became associated with the color even though the flag is red, white, and blue. Flags are often hung with an additional orange pennant symbolizing the reigning royal house.
