It’s almost October and time to plant more daffodil bulbs! These cheery blooms are perennials, so if you plant this autumn, your yard or neighborhood will be a lovely place to be next spring!
The Tarrytown Beautification Foundation is offering daffodil bulbs to our village at the wholesale price of only $75 per bushel. You will have about 450-500 mixed variety bulbs to plant in your yard. Perhaps you can interest some of your neighbors to share a bushel and plant more daffodils each year.
You can plant the bulbs about 20-25 to a hole for a nice display, or you can plant them in ones and twos. If a few of you share a bushel or more, your neighborhood will be in bloom by mid April!
This is the fourth year of Project Daffodil. Our original goal was to plant 10,000 bulbs a year for ten years ending up with 100,000 daffodils by the spring of 2016. The enthusiasm for Project Daffodil has been so great, that Tarrytowners have already planted 80,000 plus bulbs! TBF hopes to celebrate the 100,000 bloom mark in April 2010.
If you would like to buy a bushel, please contact Patricia Pinckney
by October 1.
