Our Building & Design ProcessArtistic Approach
Artistic Approach
Our philosophy for garden design is at the intersection of nature and order. We will analyze your site and carefully take into account its characteristics to fashion a truly compelling garden made to underline your property’s character and to be admired through the years.Marvelous Variety
Marvelous Variety
The majority of our plants come from trusted horticulturalists. As a supplement, we cultivate less common varieties on our own at our small plant nursery. We emphasize use of native plants as often as possible, but we also recognize that diversified garden arrangements featuring some novel plants often promote maximized beauty and longevity.Wildlife Friendly
Wildlife Friendly
We prioritize creating beautiful gardens which offer suitable ecosystems for pollinators, enabling you to be a good friend of the planet whilst reveling in well-conceived beauty. Green and visually pleasing, our gardens are made to provide the benefits of both worlds.Minimal Maintenance
Minimal Maintenance
Once established, our gardens are intended to do well by themselves, with little to no mulching or watering needed. However, some attention may be necessary at certain times to maintain design details and ensure ongoing plant health. Our internal staff will be happy to provide assistance or guidance at these times.What Sets Us Apart
Other local landscape designers may be able to offer gardens that look nice, but we go well past just aesthetics. We pull from multiple decades of experience and vast horticultural knowledge to compose gardens that are well poised to thrive harmoniously, with minimal maintenance required as the seasons pass. Our installers place plants with care, giving mind to how they will evolve and highlight certain other design centerpieces on your property. We believe that collaboration is crucial, and we will work in conjunction with you to fulfill your aspirations for your own individual garden.

By experiencing your space in person, we can thoroughly envision the possibilities, making note of its inherent strengths and manners in which thoughtful landscaping can accentuate it.After a detailed discussion, we will propose different options. After we have come to a consensus and construction begins, our detail-oriented team will be on premises to prepare the space and soil, install plants & hardscapes and oversee the entire process.

Bala Cynwyd ( BAL-ə-KIN-wuud) is a community in Lower Merion Township, Pennsylvania. It is located on the Philadelphia Main Line in Southeastern Pennsylvania and borders the western edge of Philadelphia at U.S. Route 1 (City Avenue). The present-day community was originally two separate towns, Bala and Cynwyd, but was united as a singular community largely because the U.S. Post Office, the Bala Cynwyd branch, served both towns using ZIP Code 19004. The community was long known as hyphenated Bala-Cynwyd. Bala and Cynwyd are currently served by separate stations on SEPTA's Cynwyd Line of Regional Rail.
I have worked with Donald Pell Gardens for several years, and have only positive things to say about the entire team. From concept to completion, they are thorough, organized and incredibly easy to work with. I would recommend them without any reservations!

I saw Donald Pell's signage on my way to work. It was the best phone call I ever made. Donald and his entire team are professional, thorough, and do an excellent job. Once the job is completed they continue to monitor the job. It's nice to see a company that takes pride in their work. The photos I have attached are plantings that are only 5 months young. I would highly recommend this company.

I was on the phone with Jenna their landscape architect and I thought she's awesome. I would hire them sight unseen! She was so wonderful listening and providing me with her professional insights about my plans that I only wish I could hire them except my property is too small. This company really cares about their clients and even prospective clients! That's RARE to find and a solid winner for me.

Don Pell and his team were fantastic. They apprised of us what to expect for our project from time frame to cost to detailed plans. The team was excellent answering questions and giving us maintenance ideas. Included was a detailed "blueprint" with names of plantings.The group did four meadows for us and all are thriving 1-3 years after planting.Don Pell was available by phone whenever necessary. We highly recommend the Don Pell team and if we had any more areas to plant, would hire them again!

We engaged Don Pell Gardens six months before our new house was finished with the goals of creating a landscape design that anchored our new home to the rural/mountain environment, stabilized steep terrain and managed water run off from the large roof area. Don's was attentive to our needs and concerns to ensure they were reflected in his proposal. The design and implementation exceeded our expectations. In addition to accomplishing the stated goals we have beautiful gardens that we will enjoy for many years to come. Don's team were very focused, professional, courteous and worked seamlessly with our builders as they completed the house. Even our builders were complimentary! We have no hesitation in recommending Don Pell Gardens. In fact we intend on having him back in the future.
