About Us
Our proprietor, Donald Pell, gained an appreciation for plants and landscapes early in life. After expanding his knowledge with guidance from leading architects, Donald decided to put his passion into practice. Since then, Donald and our other team members draw on their diverse arrays of knowledge and backgrounds as they work to bring to life intentional gardens built to delight as they evolve. From planning out your ideal garden on paper to building it at your site, our landscape architects will work alongside qualified building partners to deliver award-worthy designs tailored to your vision and space. Our Building & Design ProcessArtistic Approach

Artistic Approach
Our approach to garden design is at the meetingplace of nature and order. We will evaluate your site and carefully consider its characteristics to construct a truly immersive garden made to enhance your property’s character and to be appreciated over time.Incredible Variety

Incredible Variety
The majority of our plants come from trusted horticulturalists. As a supplement, we cultivate less popular varieties on our own at our small plant nursery. We prioritize use of locally growing plants as often as possible, but we also observe that diversified garden compositions featuring some novel additions often promote extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Friendly

Wildlife Friendly
We prioritize creating stunning landscapes which offer suitable ecosystems for pollinators, enabling you to be a good friend of the planet whilst enjoying well-conceptualized beauty. Green and visually stunning, our gardens are designed to provide the benefits of each world.Low Maintenance

Low Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are designed to grow well by themselves, with little to no mulching or watering needed. Still, minor attention may be necessary at various points to maintain design details and ensure continual plant health. Our in-house team will be happy to offer assistance or advice at these periods.What Makes Us Different
Other local landscape designers may be able to plant gardens that look nice, but we go well past simple aesthetics. We draw on multiple decades of experience and vast horticultural education to compose gardens that are well positioned to thrive harmoniously, with minimal upkeep needed as the seasons change. Our team members place plants with care, giving mind to how they will grow and accent certain other design centerpieces on your site. We believe that communication is crucial, and we will work closely with you to honor your desires for your own individual garden.
