Our Building & Design ProcessArtistic Approach
Artistic Approach
Our philosophy for landscape design is at the intersection of wildness and order. We will analyze your site and carefully consider its elements to fashion a truly compelling garden made to enhance your property’s essence and to be admired over time.Marvelous Variety
Marvelous Variety
The majority of our plants come from trusted growers. As a supplement, we propagate less common varieties ourselves at our small nursery. We prioritize use of locally growing plants as often as possible, but we also recognize that diverse garden compositions composed of some novel additions are often most conducive to extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Friendly
Wildlife Friendly
We prioritize creating stunning landscapes which provide favorable ecosystems for pollinators, enabling you to be a good friend of the planet while reveling in well-conceived beauty. Green and visually stunning, our gardens are designed to provide the best of both worlds.Minimal Maintenance
Minimal Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are designed to grow well on their own, with little to zero supplementing or watering needed. Still, some attention may be needed at certain times to maintain design integrity and ensure continual plant well-being. Our internal team will be happy to provide assistance or guidance at these periods.What Makes Us Different

We draw on numerous decades of hands-on work and in-depth horticultural education to curate gardens that are well poised to thrive in harmony, with minimal upkeep needed as the seasons change. Our team members orient plants with intention, giving mind to how they will evolve and highlight specific other design features on your site. We feel that communication is crucial, and we will work closely with you to fulfill your desires 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.
