Our approach to garden design is at the intersection of nature and order. We will analyze your property and carefully take into account its elements to create a truly dynamic garden made to complement your property’s essence and to be appreciated over time.Incredible Variety
Incredible Variety
The majority of our plants are sourced from trusted horticulturalists. To supplement, we cultivate less common varieties on our own at our small nursery. We emphasize use of native plants whenever possible, but we also recognize that diverse garden arrangements featuring some novel plants are often most conducive to extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Friendly

We prioritize creating beautiful gardens which provide suitable homes for pollinators, allowing you to be a good friend of the environment whilst reveling in well-conceived beauty. Eco-friendly and visually pleasing, our gardens are made to offer the benefits of both worlds.Low Maintenance
Low Maintenance
Once established, our gardens are designed to do well by themselves, with little to no supplementing or watering needed. However, some attention may be needed at various points to maintain design integrity and ensure ongoing plant well-being. Our internal team will be happy to offer support or insights at these periods.What Makes Us Different
Other local design firms may be able to offer gardens that look pretty, but we go beyond just looks. We draw on numerous decades of hands-on work and in-depth horticultural knowledge to curate gardens that are well positioned to thrive harmoniously, with minimal upkeep needed as the seasons pass. Our installers place plants with care, paying mind to how they will evolve and highlight certain other design centerpieces on your property. We believe that communication is vital, and we will work in conjunction with you to fulfill your aspirations for your own individual 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.
