About Us
Our proprietor, Donald Pell, gained an appreciation for landscapes and plants early in life. After expanding his abilities alongside leading architects, Donald decided to put his passion to work.

From sketching out your ideal garden on paper to building it on the land, our landscape experts will work alongside qualified construction partners to deliver high-value designs tailored to your vision and space. Our Building & Design ProcessCreative Approach

Creative Approach
Our philosophy for landscape design is at the meetingplace of nature and order. We will analyze your site and carefully take into account its elements to construct a truly immersive garden made to complement your property’s character and to be admired through the years.Incredible Variety

Incredible Variety
Most of our plants are sourced from trusted growers. As a supplement, we cultivate less common varieties on our own at our small plant nursery. We prioritize use of native plants as often as possible, but we also observe that diversified garden compositions composed of some novel additions are often most conducive to extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Friendly

Wildlife Friendly
We aim to create stunning landscapes which offer suitable ecosystems for pollinators, allowing you to be a good friend of the planet while reveling in well-conceived beauty. Green and visually pleasing, our gardens are made to provide the benefits of each world.Minimal Maintenance

Minimal Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are planned to grow well by themselves, with little to zero mulching or watering needed. But, minor attention may be needed at certain points to preserve design integrity and ensure continual plant well-being. Our in-house team will be available to provide support or advice at these times.What Makes Us Different

We pull from numerous decades of expertise and in-depth horticultural knowledge to curate gardens that are well poised to thrive harmoniously, with little maintenance required as the seasons pass. Our team members orient plants with care, giving close attention to how they will grow and accent specific other design centerpieces on your property. We believe that communication is crucial, and we will work in conjunction with you to fulfill your desires for your own individual garden.
