Located at Luttekeweg 1 in Zwolle, Bloementuin Zwolle is a prominent organic self-picking flower garden. It is known as the largest biological flower garden in the Zwolle area, where visitors are invited to create their own vibrant bouquets from a wide array of colorful, organically grown perennial and annual flowers. The garden is fully maintained using organic methods, without chemical treatments, promoting a healthy environment for local biodiversity, including bees and butterflies.
The picking season typically runs from late May or early June, depending on the weather, until mid-October. For the 2026 season, the garden will be open on Fridays from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM and Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Visitors can pick a generous bouquet of flowers for €12.50. Other options include a ‘bucket of picking happiness’ containing 50 diverse seasonal flowers for €38.00, or various gift vouchers and strip cards for multiple picking sessions. A seasonal subscription is also available. In addition to self-picking, the garden shop offers items like flower shears and organic gardening products from Bio Kultura. Debit card payment is accepted on site.
