1300 more bulbs are bound for Leith after the City of Edinburgh Council confirmed that they're willing to donate bulbs for free to Redbraes Community Garden and Greener Leith. Volunteers at Redbraes Community Garden managed to bag 1000 crocus for their area, whilst Greener Leith will be splitting 300 daffodil bulbs between Persevere Community Garden and the Pilrig Park Berry Hedge.

These additional bulbs follow on from the 10,000 planted by volunteers in Leith Links, 3000 bulbs planted by members of the Friends of Montgomery Street Park, and we note that council workers were busy planting thousands more bulbs in Lochend park this week too. All in all, that's going to add up to a lot more flowers next spring.
