Volunteers from Dartmouth Green Partnerships worked hard to get the town’s displays for 2018 planted up. Dartmouth Brownies joined us to plant half of the 120 hanging baskets we create. (Thanks to the Dolphin for providing some refreshments on planting day.) Volunteers planted the rest, each with a mix of richly coloured apricot and red begonias and purple and lime green ipomea. They were planted with plenty of space for the plants to grow ensuring that the display will last until early October. The baskets were placed around the Boat Float, along the riverfront, and in the streets.
Our containers, boats and riverside troughs were planted by volunteers with evergreens, geraniums and begonias, and Herbie has wonderful heucheras as well. Our new boat in Royal Avenue Gardens is themed with white and yellow plants.
