Our GardensLet's Work Together
About Us
Our founder, Donald Pell, gained an appreciation for landscapes and plants early in life. After expanding his knowledge with guidance from talented architects, Donald decided to put his passion into practice. Now, Donald and the rest of our team draw on their diverse sets of knowledge and backgrounds as they work to create intentional gardens built to spark joy as they grow and change. From sketching out your dream garden on paper to building it on the land, our horticulture architects will work alongside qualified construction partners to deliver award-worthy designs tailored to your vision and space. Our Building & Design ProcessArtistic Approach
Artistic Approach
Our philosophy for landscape design is at the meetingplace of wildness and order. We will analyze your property and carefully consider its characteristics to create a truly immersive garden made to enhance your property’s character and to be admired through the years.Incredible Variety
Incredible Variety
The majority of our plants are sourced from trusted horticulturalists. As a supplement, we propagate less popular varieties on our own at our small plant nursery. We emphasize use of native plants as often as possible, but we also recognize that diverse garden compositions composed of some novel additions often promote extended beauty and longevity.Wildlife Minded

We prioritize creating stunning landscapes which offer favorable ecosystems for pollinators, enabling you to be a good steward of the environment while enjoying well-conceptualized beauty. Eco-friendly and visually pleasing, our gardens are made to offer the benefits of both worlds.Low Maintenance
Low Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are designed to do well on their own, with little to zero mulching or watering required. However, minor attention may be necessary at certain times to maintain design integrity and ensure ongoing plant health. Our in-house staff will be available to provide support or advice at these times.What Makes Us Different
Other local landscape designers may be able to offer gardens that look pretty, but we go beyond simple aesthetics. We pull from multiple decades of hands-on work and in-depth horticultural education to curate gardens which are well positioned to thrive harmoniously, with minimal upkeep needed as the seasons pass. Our team members place plants with care, paying close attention to how they will evolve and accent certain other design centerpieces on your site. We feel that communication is vital, and we will work closely with you to fulfill your desires for your unique garden.
Flesh Out Your Garden Design with Our Trained Horticulturalists
If you’re excited to give a lift to your yard with gorgeous, strategically located plants that anchor your home and grow each year to inspire you all over, the first step is to schedule a meeting at your property with our team of experienced architects. By seeing the space in person, we can fully envision the possibilities, pinpointing its inherent strengths and ways in which thoughtful landscaping can accentuate it.After an open discussion, we will propose different options. Once we have come to a consensus and construction begins, our detail-oriented team will be on premises to ready the area and soil, install plants and hardscapes and watch over the building 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.
