God's gift blooms: 6,500 daffodils planted in record time!
In Gottesgabe, a small town in the northwest of Mecklenburg, a remarkable planting event took place today in which over 6,500 daffodil bulbs were planted in the ground in just two hours. The initiative was supported by over 100 motivated residents who worked together to ensure that the roadsides and playgrounds in the towns of Rosenhagen, Klein and Groß Welzin and Gottesgabe will shine in bright yellow in the coming year. Mareike Brietzke was among the helpers who actively participated in this colorful endeavor. According to the Nordkurier report, Manuel Grau, an experienced onion planter, gave valuable tips during the campaign and donated an additional 1,500 daffodil bulbs to support the project. The remaining 5,000 onions were procured by the local village association, which raised money for it through various events.
The tradition of planting flowers has a history in Godsend. Crocus bulbs were planted three years ago, but they did not have the expected effect. “The daffodils should now bring the desired splash of color,” emphasized a resident who was there with a lot of enthusiasm. The bulbs were planted exactly 15 to 20 centimeters deep in the soil to ensure that they can grow well.
Community and future projects
The planting campaign shows how much passion the village community puts into its surroundings. Over 30 residents from the surrounding villages were actively involved in the planting campaign. The village association is also planning a Christmas market on November 29, 2025, where the funds collected will certainly be invested wisely.
Another nice aspect of such actions is the possibility that they not only beautify the environment, but also strengthen the sense of community. Such events bring people together - this was clearly shown on this day in God's gift.
In addition to the local activities, other platforms call for tree and flower planting. On the Aktion Baum website there is a lot of information about upcoming planting campaigns in various cities, including numerous dates in the coming year, such as in Grafing near Munich or in Langerwehe between Cologne and Aachen. So if you haven't had enough of nature, this is a great opportunity to get involved.
It is to be hoped that in the future the blooming daffodils will not only beautify the place, but will also be a symbol of the community and commitment of the people who live here.
The details of the planting campaign are in a report by Northern Courier to read, while further interesting information can be found below Marpingen are available. Also the exciting initiative of Action tree offers many opportunities to support nature.
