Marvelous Variety
Most of our plants are sourced from trusted horticulturalists. As a supplement, we propagate less popular varieties ourselves at our small nursery. We prioritize use of locally growing plants as often as possible, but we also observe that diversified garden compositions featuring some novel additions are often most conducive to extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Minded

Once established, our gardens are designed to grow well on their own, with little to no mulching or watering needed. However, minor adjustments may be needed at certain times to maintain design details and ensure continual plant well-being. Our internal team will be available to offer assistance or insights at these times.What Sets Us Apart

We draw on multiple decades of hands-on work and in-depth horticultural education to compose gardens that are well poised to thrive in harmony, with little maintenance required as the seasons change. Our installers place plants with care, giving mind to how they will evolve and highlight specific other design features on your site.

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.
