Planting Day 20th October! 2015-10-13

Penny Dacey, 13 October 2015

Hello Bulb Buddies,

There is only a week to go before planting day on 20th October! Are you ready? Here are some helpful resources to prepare you for planting your bulbs and for looking after them over the coming months! These are also on the Spring Bulbs for Schools website: http://www.museumwales.ac.uk/spring-bulbs/

Before planting day you should have read these documents:

  • A Letter from Professor Plant (introduction to the project)
  • Adopt your Bulb (an overview of the care your Bulbs will need)
  • Planting your Bulbs (guidelines for ensuring a fair experiment)

And completed these activities:

  • Bulb Adoption Certificate
  • Make Bulb Labels

It's important you read these as they contain important information! For example, do you know how deep you need to plant your bulbs? Or how to label your pot so that you know where the Daffodil and Crocus are planted?

Remember to take photos of your planting day to enter into the Planting Day Photo Competition!

Best of luck Bulb Buddies! Let us know how you get on!

My husband and I had a lovely and informative day out at the National Coal Museum yesterday. Our guide was full of wisdom bytes about the working of this mine and mining in general. He kept the whole group which was pretty diverse, very engaged throughout. The tour was both educational and entertaining - Well done to all of you for putting together such a good show down at the Coal Mine. Keep it up!

Cheers :)
