Our GardensLet's Work Together
About Us
Our proprietor, Donald Pell, gained an appreciation for plants and landscapes early in life. After expanding his skills with guidance from leading architects, Donald decided to put his enthusiasm to work. Since then, Donald and the rest of our team apply their diverse sets of knowledge and skills as they work to bring to life well-designed gardens built to delight as they grow and change. From drawing out your ideal garden on paper to building it at your site, our horticulture architects will collaborate with qualified construction partners to deliver high-value designs catered to your vision and space. Our Building & Design ProcessArtistic Approach
Artistic Approach
Our approach to landscape design is at the intersection of wildness and order. We will analyze your property and carefully take into account its characteristics to fashion a truly immersive garden made to complement your property’s essence and to be admired over time.Incredible Variety
Incredible Variety
Most of our plants come from trusted growers. To supplement, we propagate less popular varieties on our own at our small plant nursery. We emphasize use of native plants whenever possible, but we also recognize that diversified garden arrangements composed of some novel plants often promote extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Friendly
Wildlife Friendly
We prioritize creating stunning landscapes which offer favorable ecosystems for pollinators, enabling you to be a good friend of the planet while reveling in well-conceptualized beauty. Green and visually pleasing, our gardens are made to provide the benefits of both worlds.Minimal Maintenance
Minimal Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are designed to do well on their own, with little to zero mulching or watering needed. But, minor attention may be necessary at certain points to preserve design details and ensure ongoing plant health. Our in-house team will be happy to offer assistance or insights at these periods.What Makes Us Different
Other local landscape designers may be able to give you gardens that look pretty, but we go well past simple aesthetics. We pull from multiple decades of hands-on work and in-depth horticultural education to compose gardens which are well poised to thrive in harmony, with minimal maintenance required as the seasons pass. Our team members place plants with care, giving close attention to how they will grow and highlight certain other design features on your property. We believe that communication is crucial, and we will work closely with you to fulfill your desires for your own individual garden.

By experiencing the space in person, we can fully envision the potential, making note of its inherent advantages and ways in which thoughtful landscaping can accentuate it.After a detailed discussion, we will propose different solutions. Once we have come to a consensus and construction begins, our skilled team will be on site to ready the space and soil, put in plants & hardscapes and oversee the entire process.

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.
