Marvelous Variety
Most of our plants are sourced from trusted horticulturalists. As a supplement, we cultivate less popular varieties ourselves at our small plant nursery. We prioritize use of locally growing plants whenever possible, but we also observe that diverse garden arrangements composed of some novel additions are often most conducive to extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Friendly

We aim to create beautiful gardens which offer favorable spaces for pollinators, enabling you to be a good steward of the environment while enjoying well-conceptualized beauty. Eco-friendly and visually pleasing, our gardens are made to offer the best of both worlds.Minimal Maintenance
Minimal Maintenance
Once established, our gardens are intended to grow well by themselves, with little to zero mulching or watering required. But, some attention may be necessary at certain points to maintain design details and ensure ongoing plant well-being. Our internal team will be available to offer assistance or insights at these times.What Sets Us Apart
Other local landscape designers may be able to give you gardens which look nice, but we go beyond simple aesthetics. We draw on multiple decades of hands-on work and in-depth horticultural education to compose gardens which are well positioned to thrive harmoniously, with little upkeep needed as the seasons pass. Our installers orient plants with intention, paying close attention to how they will evolve and highlight certain other design features on your site. We believe that collaboration is vital, and we will work in conjunction with you to fulfill your aspirations for your unique garden.

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.
