One of the best things you can do during this difficult period is spend time in your garden. But you may not want to brave the garden center crowds to get the flowers you desire.
To help our gardening friends, the Mount Prospect Historical Society is once again offering spring flower bulbs for sale through its website. Proceeds from the sale will benefit the Society’s general operating fund. The bulbs, provided by Dutch Mill Bulbs of Annville, PA, are guaranteed to bloom or you get a free replacement. They range from gladiolas, irises and amaryllis to hosta, lilies, strawberries and beyond.
Gardeners in the market for new, fresh bulbs to plant in their yards can order completely online by providing shipping and billing information, and offering payment through PayPal or a credit card. By following the link provided on the Mount Prospect Historical Society website, your purchase will be automatically credited to the Society.
Each order will be shipped directly to the purchaser, no matter where they are in the country. So, if you have a friend in another state who is an avid gardener, suggest that he or she purchase their bulbs on behalf of the Mount Prospect Historical Society this year, too.
The flower bulb sale ends December 1, 2020. To purchase bulbs via PayPal, log onto https://www.mtphist.org/support-us-with-dutch-mill-bulbs-2/. Or you may phone the Historical Society at 847/392-9006, Tuesday through Thursday during office hours, to pay by credit card.
