Robert Powell
graduated from Louisiana State University with a B.S. in Landscape
Architecture. He had the experience of working for Disneyland in
California, which helped him develop a sense of imaginative design. He set
up and managed a landscape design and construction company in New Orleans,
Louisiana for nine years. In 1976, Bob bought Gledhill and began
to establish it as one of the country's most unique garden centers and landscape
companies. Has had a
commitment to sharing ideas, experiences, and knowledge with the public as well
as civic and trade associations. He frequently speaks to groups about
landscape design and gardening ideas. Bob has served through active
association with many trade organizations, including the American
Nursery and Landscape Association, the National
Landscape Association, the Garden
Centers of America, the New England
Nursery Association (past president), the Connecticut Nurserymen's
Association (past president), and the West Hartford Chamber of Commerce (past
president). Bob passes this commitment of service to his staff with a
reputation for quality, knowledge, and service.
