Last April, a group of Mayflower Community residents calling themselves FANS (Friends and Neighbors of Mayflower), planted over 400 seed cups and distributed them to independent living residents in apartment buildings, to the doors of Harwich Terrace patio home residents, to Health Center and Beebe Assisted Living residents, and to staff members.
In case the FUN group members wonder if any good came of all these seed cups, the answer lies in the marigold plantings that have sprouted at the northwest corner of the Buckley building (see photo), compliments of Altemeier residents.
The Altemeier folks nursed the plants along until they could be safely planted outdoors. There are five clumps with four plants each.
