As part of its ongoing “Golden Days” daffodil planting, Plymouth Garden Club volunteers, under the direction of Coletta Candini, have planted 1,000 daffodil bulbs at Golden LivingCenter in Plymouth. Next spring, the daffodils will bloom near the gazebo, giving it a burst of golden yellow color for the residents to enjoy.
This program was started in 2009 as part of the National Garden Club President’s Project. It called for all Massachusetts garden clubs to plant daffodils at nursing homes, senior centers and housing for seniors and to create mass plantings at civic locations.
The first planting of 1,000 bulbs was at the Plymouth Public Library on South Street, the next year it was the Radius Nursing Home and last year at Life Care Center. The project is funded by the Garden Club, which is made possible, in part, by the support of the general public for the club’s community projects.
