The Hackney Wicked Festival has been really gathering steam over the last few years, and the the 2010 festival was the best one yet. Partly because it was much bigger than before, but also because this year, they kindly gave us a stack of Growing Concerns vouchers to buy a huge pile of spring bulbs.
We got two enormous bags of daffodils and two big boxes of purple crocuses, then headed back to the meadow where lots of lovely local people got stuck in and we got them in the ground. We planted hundreds of them! But we saved some too, which we'll when we sow our next batch of wildflower seeds. That way, we'll have beautiful bulbs in spring then as they die back, our spectacular meadow take over for the summer.
