Living Colour Plant Giveaway
You need more snapdragons in your life.
Overview
Strolls around the city have been much brighter in recent weeks, all thanks to the addition of some unexpected blooms. The CBD's grey, concrete streets have had a makeover as a part of the City of Sydney's twice-yearly 'Living Colour' floral display project, taking over Martin Place, Castlereagh Street, Alfred Street, Queens Square, Cathedral Square, Springfield Gardens, Taylor Square, Sydney Town Hall and QVB, Green Square, Union Square, the forecourt outside St Mary's cathedral and more. But as the nearly 100,000 plants have been blooming since September, these flowers need a new home.
Want some more snapdragons, celosia, golden marjoram and bromeliads in your life? On Sunday, November 13 from 8am, St Mary's Cathedral will be the spot to snag some cut-price botanical beauties. For just a gold coin donation, you'll be able to take home everything from petunias to curly parsley. Plus, with the spring displays created in collaboration with the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney as a celebration of its 200th birthday, all funds raised will be heading to the Foundation and Friends of the Botanic Gardens.
Add some colour to your own space and feel good about it too. Who could resist adopting these little blooms that've seen it all?
