This year planting season has began. In Green Girls we have started planting Tulips for the spring. Hopefully ,they will soon grow into beautiful flowers. This was a special event with the lower school joining in. All the lower school girls were paired up with one or two older girls. The process started with filling the bottom of a flower pot with a couple of rocks to allow the water to soak through up the water. Then you would add the soil and place the tulip bulbs in a shallow hole. Remember if you do this excellent Green idea at home ,try not to get messy! From the Green Girls.
