Planting the bulbs at Florence Green had been months in the making! First the council didn't deliver them on time and then we were scuppered by the frozen ground meaning we couldn't get them in the soil even though they'd arrived. We finally had a date in the diary and there hadn't been any frost in sight.

The Glass Mill group made their way up to Florence Green whilst others met us at the task. Paul was in a virtual Cardiff suburb (Lewisham Way) tackling the litter to help achieve a relay that GoodGym Cardiff are doing for the January Challenge.

Once all assembled and the bulbs in hand, we set about planting big bulbs closest to the tree and smaller bulbs towards the outside. We had to be careful not to dig up bulbs that we've previously planted and also deep enough so the squirrels don't try and dig them up for a tasty snack!

It's nearly the end of the January Challenge and we're so close to achieving our goal - fantastic work team!!
