Port Angeles Rotary bulb sale deadline set Monday

PORT ANGELES — The deadline is Monday for ordering imported flower bulbs in the fundraiser conducted by the Port Angeles Rotary Club.

The preorder deadline ensures the Holland-grown bulbs are here for pickup during the club’s three-day bulb sale in September, said Terry Gallagher, club president.

Variety offered

Offered are tulips, iris, crocus, hyacinth, daffodils and others in a variety of colors and specialties.

A catalog, including photos, as well as the order form can be found online at http://tinyurl.com/rotary-bulbs.

Port Angeles Rotary is noted for its springtime “welcome garden” featuring tulips and daffodils that line either side of U.S. Highway 101 at its eastern entrance to the city.

The club first planted the areas along the highway in 2000.

Sales of the imported bulbs support the club’s community service projects and philanthropy, including student scholarships, restoration and improvement to the former Loomis log cabin in Lincoln Park, hosting foreign exchange students and more.

Questions about the bulb sale can be phoned to 360-477-2162 or 360-452-4169.
