The three winners of our 'Best Kept Secret' campaign

From May to October 2021, TerraCottem BV held the “Best Kept Secret” campaign. The aim was to put TerraCottem’s trade secret into the spotlight.

To reward the Flemish landscapers who read about it and shared the link with their peers we incorporated a lucky draw into the campaign.

On 4th November we drew the three lucky winners.

Who are they?

The third prize winner is Simon Van Steenkiste, he received a handy Sony headset and a 5 kg tub of TerraCottem from our sales manager Frank Dewever.

Since 2017, Simon works as an independent gardener in Belgium (Tuinen Simon Vansteenkiste in Wevelgem) .

He buys his plants at Fleur and his garden supplies at Callens, two TerraCottem distributors. It was through Callens that he entered the competition. The TerraCottem will come in handy as Simon is about to plant a new hedge of Prunus in Kortrijk. Frank enthusiastically recommends incorporating TerraCottem into the soil to give the new hedge the best chance as establishing itself and growing strong. This, due to TerraCottem’s nourishing, growth stimulating and water absorbing components.

Thanks to our Best Kept Secret, Simon can now listen to his favourite music wireless and grow a thriving drought resistant hedge... Congratulations Simon!


Eddy Van Cauter, the second winner of our campaign, won the Spyker fertiliser spreader and a 10 kg tub of TerraCottem.

Eddy started working as an IT programmer. Twelve years ago, he made a career switch and became a self-employed gardener (groen@home in Sint-Gillis-Waas).

In the region where he is active, Eddy often has to deal with sandy soils. To increase their water retention capacity he adds TerraCottem soil conditioner. He also applied TerraCottem in his own beautiful idyllic garden, including the lawn. The result is worth seeing. Eddy is also adamant about getting a soil analysis done at the start of every new project. He is a customer of our distributor Luc Pauwels nv, where Patricia assists him with technical issues.

Eddy has also won the 2021-2022 “Flemish Landscaper” accolade. Two prizes in one month! Congratulations!


Vincent Bouvier is the happy winner of our first prize, a Stihl hedge trimmer with batteries and charger and a 20 kg bag of TerraCottem.

He is very happy with his prize as he did not yet have a battery-powered hedge trimmer in his toolbox.

Vincent has been working as a self-employed gardener for 6 years now ( (Bouvier-tuinen in Schilde region).

"In this region we have a lot of sandy soils and a soil conditioner like TerraCottem certainly comes in handy. Only a small amount is needed per plant, so one tub lasts a long time."

He is a customer of Tuinmaterialen Van den Bergh. We wish him lots of pruning fun!
