Alex specialized in creating distinctive designs that connect landform and architecture, blending house and gardens with understated elegance and a harmony of textures, color and form.

Karen Clendaniel
Nursery Manager/Home Services
Karen's passion for plants began back in high school starting with a vo-tech curriculum in Horticulture. Growing up in an "all military" family, she knew that her path in life was different then her siblings. She lived all over the country and overseas including West Germany and Tripoli, Libya when she was young. In 1981 she came to the Doylestown area from Lancaster to pursue her BS degree in Landscape Design. In a career that has spanned more then 30 years, she has managed greenhouses, garden centers and nurseries. Ask her about bonsai, orchids, tropical foliage, annuals/perennials, trees and shrubs and you will see that her knowledge is extensive. With so many aspects of Horticulture, she prefers to pass on her knowledge and expertise to her customers to help them with their landscape needs.
