Jen Bolger is a Denver-based garden designer with a passion for creating naturalistic gardens that bring wildlife home. Colorado is a challenging environment, but choosing the right plants, the right place and the right purpose will create a western-style garden that can survive on natural precipitation and minimal care.

Jen’s own Lafayette Garden is a layered masterpiece with vibrant spring blooms, summer fireworks, an autumn crescendo of yellow and purple and splendid winter architecture. With over 200 species thriving at Lafayette Garden, the biodiversity and wildlife activity is amazing.

Situated on less than a quarter acre in the Denver city limits, this small parcel is a testament to Jen’s love for plants, propagation and meticulous record-keeping. Proving the profound impact a small plot can have on the world.
