About Us
Our proprietor, Donald Pell, gained a zest for landscapes and plants early in life. After expanding his skills alongside talented architects, Donald was moved to put his enthusiasm into practice. Since then, Donald and our other team members apply their diverse arrays of knowledge and skills as they work to bring to life intentional gardens built to spark joy as they evolve. From planning out your dream garden on paper to making it a reality at your site, our horticulture experts will collaborate with qualified construction partners to deliver high-value designs tailored to your vision and location. Our Building & Design ProcessCreative Approach
Creative Approach
Our approach to landscape design is at the intersection of nature and order. We will evaluate your site and carefully consider its characteristics to fashion a truly compelling garden made to complement your property’s character and to be appreciated over time.Incredible Variety
Incredible Variety
The majority of our plants come from trusted horticulturalists. To supplement, we propagate less popular varieties ourselves at our small plant nursery. We prioritize use of locally growing plants as often as possible, but we also observe that diverse garden compositions composed of some novel plants often promote extended beauty and longevity.Wildlife Minded

We prioritize creating beautiful landscapes which provide favorable homes for pollinators, allowing you to be a good steward of the environment while reveling in well-conceived beauty. Eco-friendly and visually stunning, our gardens are made to provide the benefits of both worlds.Minimal Maintenance
Minimal Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are intended to grow well on their own, with little to zero mulching or watering needed. But, minor attention may be needed at various times to maintain design details and ensure continual plant health. Our in-house staff will be happy to offer support or advice at these periods.What Makes Us Different
Other local landscape designers may be able to give you gardens that look nice, but we go well past just aesthetics. We draw on numerous decades of expertise and vast horticultural education to curate gardens which are well poised to thrive harmoniously, with little upkeep needed as the seasons pass. Our installers place plants with care, paying close attention to how they will grow and highlight specific 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 unique garden.
Conceptualize Your Garden Design with Our Trained Horticulturalists
If you are excited to give a lift to your site with gorgeous, strategically placed plants that anchor your home and bloom each year to inspire you all over, the initial step is to schedule a consultation at your property with our group of expert designers. By experiencing your space in person, we can fully envision the possibilities, pinpointing its inherent advantages and ways in which well-planned landscaping can accentuate it.After a detailed discussion, we will propose various solutions. Once we have come to the final plan and construction begins, our skilled team will be on site to ready the space and soil, put in plants and hardscapes and watch over 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.
