WE BURIED OUR TULIPS! With lots of excitement and help from three classroom parents, grade 3, room 22 planted 2 dozen Red Emperor tulip bulbs. They are planted at the front of the school by the flag pole. Our school principal, Mr. Waldie, thinks they will look great in the spring. We noted that our bulbs had different circumferences and different weights. We had to add some peat moss to our clay soil or Manitoba gumbo as some people call it. It was a warm, windy, cloudy day that brought some rain five hours after our planting. Our tulip bulbs are off to a caring start and have a nice warm bed for the winter.
