A design degree in hand, it was during a prolonged stay in Europe that Marie Anne Alexandre, the founder, discovered her passion for landscape design.  She enrolled in Garden Design at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, London England from which she graduated in 1994.  She continued her studies taking master classes at ITA, St Hyacinthe Qc and also continues to visit prominent landscapes/gardens in Québec and overseas.

 

It was in 1995 that Terre en fleur began offering landscape design services and project management for landscape architectural firms and renowned landscape design and build firms. Marie Anne Alexandre perfected her art with hands on experience working for multiple clients and firms. This is where she develops her mission: generate the maximum of benefits for her clients with the minimum of investments, by design.

   

In 2001, Marie Anne Alexandre and Claude Robillard become associates enabling Terre en Fleur to expand its operations, satisfying our customer demands for both design and construction/build services.   Claude Robillard sells his business and invests in Terre en Fleur, bringing 15 years of experience in operations management and business (SME) financial planning. By means of solid design and cost effective job management, Terre en fleur continues to offer the maximum for the minimum: beautiful, functional, outdoor spaces that we love to live in. 

 

Uniting a multi-disciplinary team of talented craftsman and design specialists is a priority for us. 

Our attention to detail, and respect for the investment involved in every landscape project – regardless of its size is a value that our employees share. 

 

Our success is largely attributable to our client relations. We work together with our clients, forming a relationship based on trust and mutual respect. Great teams create beautiful projects-in partnering with our clients, we aspire to greatness.

 

Ever conscious of the ‘internship’ we hold with our environment, Terre en fleur  applies environmentally responsible  practices. Beginning with proactive design principles, education, materials, build and refuse disposal (recycle, reuse, reduce). 

 

Always striving for improvement and aspiring to learn more, the two business partners have become certified members of several important associations,  l’APPQ (Association des paysagistes professionnels du Québec) et l’ACJQ (Association des concepteurs de jardins du Quebec).
