Meet the Manager
Alexa Hoskins
History: I began my Earl May career in 2021 as a part-time sales associate and was promoted to associate manager in 2024. I took over as manager in August of 2025.
Favorite Place to Visit: I enjoy spending time at Rock Creed State Park when the weather is nice. I enjoy hiking the trails and paddle boarding on the lake.
Favorite Houseplant: Begonia Rex - Not only are they super colorful but also have a shimmer to their leaves that I love.
Favorite Tree: I really like the Sunset Valley Maples. Their fall color is what really draws me to them having that awesome red and orange foliage.
Top 3 Perennials: Autumn Joy Sedum, Twinkle Toes Lungwort, and Columbine
