Our Building & Design ProcessCreative Approach
Creative Approach
Our philosophy for garden design is at the intersection of nature and order. We will evaluate your site and carefully take into account its characteristics to construct a truly immersive garden made to underline your property’s character and to be admired over time.Marvelous Variety
Marvelous Variety
The majority of our plants are sourced from trusted growers. To supplement, we propagate less common varieties on our own at our small plant nursery. We emphasize use of locally growing plants whenever possible, but we also recognize that diverse garden compositions composed of some novel plants often promote maximized beauty and longevity.Wildlife Minded

We aim to create beautiful landscapes which provide favorable homes for pollinators, enabling you to be a good steward of the environment while reveling in well-conceived beauty. Green and visually stunning, our gardens are designed to offer the best of both worlds.Minimal Maintenance
Minimal Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are planned to grow well on their own, with little to zero supplementing or watering needed. But, minor attention may be needed at certain points to maintain design integrity and ensure ongoing plant health. Our in-house staff will be available to provide assistance or advice at these periods.What Makes Us Different
Other local landscape designers may be able to give you gardens that look pretty, but we go beyond just aesthetics. We draw on multiple decades of hands-on work and vast horticultural knowledge to compose gardens that are well poised to thrive harmoniously, with little maintenance needed as the seasons pass. Our team members place plants with intention, paying close attention to how they will evolve and highlight specific other design centerpieces on your site. We feel that collaboration is crucial, and we will work in conjunction with you to fulfill your aspirations for your own individual garden.

By experiencing the space in person, we can thoroughly envision the possibilities, making note of its inherent advantages and ways in which thoughtful landscaping can accentuate it.After a detailed discussion, we will propose different solutions. After we have come to the final plan and construction begins, our detail-oriented team will be on premises to prepare the space and soil, install plants and hardscapes and oversee the entire 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.
