I participate each year with a few of my neighbors. We plant up a tiny public park (parklet?) and the surrounding sidewalk. It’s a fun tradition and a blast to look forward to the flowers each early spring.

This year’s bulbs being given away include mini-irises, mini-daffodils, crocuses and blue Glory of the Snow. They’re tiny and best planted in mass - bunches of tiny blubs packed into a wide shallow hole. They bloom in late march-early april & then die back by May. (Works with lawn mowing)

Bloom Rhode Island has a ‘how to’ video on planting and they can also send over a trainer to your location if you are nervous. They make planting easy. So, check it out at bloomrhodeisland.org/hope-springs...
