The project is part of the From the Group Up organization in Lincoln
and is aimed at adding to the overall beauty of the city with beds
of red tulips. Last year the group planted 14,000 tulip bulbs, and
this spring they were highly visible throughout the community. With
tulips being a perennial that returns year after year, this year the
group hopes to enlarge the beautification project with even more.
Anyone who wishes to help should report to City Hall at 9 a.m.
Saturday.
According to Kathy Vinyard, who serves as spokeswoman for the
group, generators and drills with garden bulb auger bits will be
provided to make the task easier.
She also said that targeted areas this week are the gateway signs
coming into the city and some of the parks in town.
