Michael Connolly grew up with an innate sense of horticulture. Originally from Minnesota, Connolly watched his mother grow everything from colorful bearded irises and peonies to vegetables and, his favorite, roses.
“It was a respite for her and she enjoyed it. It just comes naturally to me,” Connolly said.
His passion for planting, agriculture and gardening led him to open his own nursery in April of this year: Connolly’s Nursery in Evergreen.
