Molly has been deeply involved in the development of Rocky Mountain Gardens, generously donating designs, plants, and labor to various spaces including the northwest and southwest garden entrances, and the A to Z Garden.

Molly shares the following:
"Gardening and plant care has been my biggest joy yet. I love working outside, and intimately getting to know people, gardens, and the ever-changing dynamics throughout the growing season. With an eye for design and a background in plant science, gardening is where it all came together.
I am always seeking the moments of fleeting perfection that gardens provide. Getting to create beauty for others is the best job ever. I am looking forward to many years of happy gardening in Missoula and beyond."

About Beautiful Blooms
This annual display garden, located within Rocky Mountain Gardens, focuses on seasonal vibrance. Each year a new designer has the opportunity to explore colors, textures, and patterns using plants , and to share their vision with countless garden visitors.
While much of Rocky Mountain Gardens is made up of perennial plantings, Beautiful Blooms’ attention to annual species promises a fresh perspective on garden design year after year.

The Beautiful Blooms garden is sponsored by Stockman Bank.
