Flower bed renewals and re-use of plants
In March 2025, contractors will be removing summer’s annuals from garden beds so they can get the parks ready for the Winter and spring displays.
Bedding plants usually only flower for a season and then die down, but skilled gardeners can sometimes keep them looking good for a while longer. If you would like to try extending the summer flowers' lives, you are welcome to collect some and have a go.
Please note: We can’t offer plants from roundabouts or traffic islands for road safety reasons, and we can't offer to hold plants for later collection - just come along at the following times if you're keen:
🌷 Cafler Park: Friday 7 March 2025 at 7:30am (Statice and Dianthus)
🌷 Forum North; Wednesday 19 March at 10:00am Geranium Apple blossom and Dianthus
🌷 Town Basin; Thursday 20 March 2025 at 7:30am (Begonia Gazania and Gaura)
🌷 Cameron Street; Thursday 27 March 2025 at 8:00am (Geranium Multibloom)
