Artful Approach
Our philosophy for landscape design is at the meetingplace of nature and order. We will analyze your site and carefully consider its characteristics to create a truly immersive garden made to underline 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 ourselves at our small nursery. We prioritize use of locally growing plants whenever possible, but we also recognize that diverse garden compositions composed of some novel additions are often most conducive to extended beauty and longevity.Wildlife Minded

Low Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are designed to do well on their own, with little to no mulching or watering needed. But, minor attention may be needed at various points to preserve design integrity and ensure ongoing plant health. Our internal team will be available to provide support or advice at these periods.What Makes Us Different
Other local design firms may be able to plant gardens that look nice, but we go beyond simple aesthetics. We draw on numerous decades of experience and in-depth horticultural knowledge to compose gardens which are well positioned to thrive harmoniously, with little upkeep needed as the seasons pass. Our installers orient plants with care, giving mind to how they will evolve and accent specific other design centerpieces on your site. We feel that collaboration is crucial, and we will work in conjunction with you to honor your desires 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.
