The bitterroots are blooming and this short window doesn’t wait!
The bitterroot flower is Montana’s state flower and one of the most unique wildflowers in the West. It blooms low to the ground, often before the leaves fully emerge and usually bloom for only a short time in late spring and early summer, which makes catching them in bloom feel extra special.
Even on chilly, rainy days, a drive through Stevensville and the fresh mountain air around Historic St. Mary’s Mission can lift the spirit.
The bitterroot flowers may be small, but a big reminder to slow down and take in the season while it lasts.
Stop by and visit. We are open Tuesday–Saturday, 11:00am –3:00pm.
