More About AndrewI’ve been in the plant industry for over 25 years, getting my start in a small garden center in south Jersey where I was hired as a bag loader and eventually becoming the store GM. Most recently, I’ve worked as a plant buyer and nursery manager of an upscale garden center in Bucks County, PA. I’ve been on the retail side of the industry most of my life and look forward to getting on the road and sharing some of my experiences with other garden centers, wholesale yards, and landscapers in the mid-Atlantic. I’ve always enjoyed the physical nature of the job and being hands-on with plant material while still learning something new everyday. As I transition into a new role with Prides Corner, I’m excited to learn more about the growing side of this industry and how I can help you.
I live in south Jersey with my wife and son where we enjoy rooting for all Philadelphia sports teams. In my spare time, I enjoy working in our yard, hiking, golfing and traveling. I attended Rutgers-Camden University and played 4 years on the men’s soccer team.
Andrew's Favorite PlantMy current favorite plant is Amsonia hubrechtii because of it's many uses in the landscape, unique texture, and 3-season interest. This incredibly adaptable native perennial can be used for early season flowering, adding a wispy grass-like foliage in summer, or for its intense fall color that stands out among the landscape. Amsonia hubrechtii looks great planted in masses or even a single planting to brighten a boring spot in your yard.
