About Us
Our founder, Donald Pell, gained an appreciation for plants and landscapes early in life. After expanding his knowledge with guidance from talented architects, Donald was moved to put his passion into practice. Today, Donald and our other team members apply their diverse arrays of knowledge and expertise as they strive to create intentional gardens built to delight as they evolve. From drawing out your ideal garden on paper to building it on the land, our landscape architects will collaborate with qualified building partners to deliver high-value designs tailored to your desires and space. Our Building & Design ProcessCreative Approach
Creative Approach
Our approach to garden design is at the meetingplace of wildness and order. We will analyze your property and carefully consider its elements to create a truly dynamic garden made to enhance your property’s character and to be appreciated over time.Incredible Variety
Incredible Variety
The majority of our plants are sourced from trusted growers. To supplement, we propagate less popular varieties on our own at our small nursery. We prioritize use of locally growing plants whenever possible, but we also observe that diverse garden arrangements composed of some novel plants often promote extended beauty and longevity.Wildlife Friendly
Wildlife Friendly
We prioritize creating beautiful gardens which provide favorable spaces for pollinators, allowing you to be a good friend of the planet whilst reveling in well-conceptualized beauty. Green and visually stunning, our gardens are made to provide the best of each world.Minimal Maintenance
Minimal Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are planned to grow well on their own, with little to zero supplementing or watering required. But, some attention may be needed at certain times to maintain design integrity and ensure continual plant well-being. Our in-house team will be available to offer assistance or advice at these times.What Sets Us Apart
Other local landscape designers may be able to give you gardens that look pretty, but we go well past just aesthetics. We pull from multiple decades of experience and vast horticultural education to curate gardens that are well positioned to thrive harmoniously, with minimal upkeep needed as the seasons pass. Our installers place plants with intention, paying close attention to how they will grow and accent certain other design centerpieces on your property. We believe that collaboration is crucial, and we will work in conjunction with you to honor 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.
