Flower-bed plants available for rescue
Our winter flower-bed plants are due for renewal and will be removed soon. Instead of disposing of them, we’d like to offer the surviving plants to attentive green-fingered gardeners to keep them growing. Keen to try your hand? Come and get some free, mature flowering plants at the times and places below:
🌷 Cafler Park, Friday 31 October from 9:30am: Cyclamen and Dianthus both mixed (pictured)
🌷 Town Basin by Hundertwasser, Wednesday 5 November from 9:3-am: Cyclamen (Rose and White) and Primrose (mixed shades)
🌷 Airport, Tuesday 11 November from 9:30am: Cyclamen (Violet and White)
🌷 Laurie Hall Park, Friday 21 November from 10:30am: Orange Geraniums and vegetables*
*Flowers will be available from the back of the Citycare truck in the carpark. Please help yourself to the vegetables on the top walk, any leftovers will be getting cleared out on Friday 5th of December and distributed back into the community. We will be planting hot chillies in there this summer to pick from.
The small print:
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, collect some and have a go.
We can't offer to hold plants for later collection – please just come along at the times above if you're keen.
