The place called Groß Blumenau until 1945 was created as a Schatulldorf . The foundation festival was held on May 6, 1811 - confirmed on July 26, 1811.

In 1874 the village was in the newly built office district Farienen incorporated that to district Szczytno in the Administrative district Königsberg (1905-1945 Administrative district Allenstein of) Prussian province of East Prussia was one and lasted until the 1945th In 1910 there were 428 inhabitants registered here. Their number rose to 354 by 1933 and was already 370 in 1939. Before 1945 the village was mainly characterized by agriculture , but the farmers also had good income opportunities as forest workers with wood backs in the forest district of Farienen. To promote beekeeping , linden trees were planted on the Groß Blumenau – Waldburg road . Among the 67 farms there were twelve extension yards. The place of purchase for the residents was Friedrichshof (now Polish: Rozogi).

Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Groß Blumenau belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Groß Blumenau, 289 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not cast any votes.

The flight of the Groß Blumenau population from the approaching Red Army in 1945 was delayed, so that the military caught up with the refugees and forced them to return. There were no casualties among the civilian population, two residents died while fleeing.

As a result of the war, Groß Blumenau and southern East Prussia came to Poland and in 1945 received the Polish name "Kwiatuszki Wielkie".
