Purple crocuses for End Polio
This year we bought, distributed and planted 4,000 purple crocuses to show our support to the Rotary End Polio project.
This year we have distributed and planted 4,000 purple crocus corms around Exmouth. Most local schools have taken 200 each, Exmouth In Bloom has taken some, we've planed 100 at Dray Court (see photo below) and we plan to plant many more at the Juniper Building (Avocet Learning Centre) at Marpool School. In addition, we gave many to the Exmouth public who visited our gazebo on World Polio Day on 24 October and several Members have taken some to plant themselves. This should ensure a riot of colour around Exmouth next spring.
