Harrogate and District Soroptimists had a busy few weeks. On 28 September we welcomed the Mayor and Mayoress of Harrogate Borough, Cllr Trevor and Janet Chapman to help us unveil a Memorial Slab for ‘Our Sisters’ at Stonefall Cemetery in Harrogate. And, one month later, five busy Soroptimist’s planted over 7000 spring flowering bulbs to surround our Memorial Weeping Elm tree. Harrogate Borough Council Horticultural Officer Sue Wood provided the expertise. Next Spring we are looking forward to a wonderful display of:
Crocus Ruby Giant, Chionodoxa luc., Anemone blue s., Ornithogalum umbellatum (Star of Bethlehem)
Muscari azureum, Pushkinia libanotica, Narcissus Jack Snipe, Scilla Mitschenkoana, Scilla Siberica
Please note the links to the flowers above are not recommendations to purchase – just to illustrate the flower type.
