A TEAM-UP will pay dividends, but their work won’t be seen until next year.
Housebuilder David Wilson Homes partnered with Wokingham Borough Council, Wokingham Town Council and Wokingham in Bloom to sponsor a community volunteer day to plant a range of bulbs on Elms Field.
It gave £500 to Wokingham Town Council’s funds of £1,000 to source 4,000 bulbs to planted on the green open space at its Landmark Square development in the town centre.
Bulbs of a wide range of plant species were scattered by local residents, all under the expert guidance of Wokingham in Bloom.
The bulbs will flower in time for judging the annual contest next year, while the housebuilder hopes it will complement the nearby Elms Field.
Campbell Gregg, managing director at David Wilson Homes Southern, said: “We were delighted to support the bulb planting in Wokingham and everyone in attendance will have provided a lovely addition to Elms Field when spring arrives.
“Supporting the communities in which we build is a priority of ours and we jump at the chance to help with these fantastic projects.”
