What is it about?

With the continued success of The BIG BULB PLANT, The International Flower Bulb Centre, in conjunction with the Eden Project, is launching the second bulb planting initiative for 2011 in time for the 2012 spring flowering season.
Grab your trowels and get your community planting during October and November in order to brighten up your surroundings with wonderful bursting blooms in spring.
Sign up now and the first 50 communities to register will receive a free box of over 250 mixed flowering spring bulbs.  Planters should also head to Westfield London on Saturday 1st October where we will we be springing up to hold workshops and Q&A sessions with celebrity gardeners Chris Collins and Toby Buckland and the team at Eden Project. We’ll also be giving out 500 free boxes of spring flowering Narcissus ‘Thalia’ (The International Flower Bulb Centre ‘Spring Flowering Bulb of the Year 2011’) bulbs to help kick start your plant.

Planting with your community is the perfect way to introduce yourself to neighbours, learn more about your surroundings and give your area a makeover.

Why not recycle unwanted items such as watering cans, shoes and pots to use as containers - It does not have to cost a lot of money to COLOUR THE COMMUNITY!

We want to hear about your planting, so please post your pics and comments on the forum
