Entre terre et ciel

Founded in 1978 in Tandel by Jules Gillen, the company Gillen began by offering trees, shrubs, and gardening services. Thanks to the quality of its plants and services, it gained recognition and diversified its offerings to include perennials, shrubs, and even garden plans designed by landscape architects. In 2023, his daughter Michèle took over the business, leading a team of 50 people and innovating with creations such as natural swimming pools.

They are part of the eight members of the Luxembourgish Horticultural Federation, which includes gardeners and a market gardener, who will design a garden for the LUGA exhibition.
