In keeping with its namesake, Keep Noblesville Beautiful recently completed another beautification project installing 4,000 daffodil bulbs at the train trestle crossing on Allisonville Road.
“The purpose of the daffodil plantings is, of course, to beautify Noblesville,” explained KNB Secretary Susan Mayes. “KNB focused on the gateways to the city. So far we have improved the gateways at the corner of Ind. 32 and Ind. 37, the Interstate 69 exit west on 146th St., the median of Ind. 37 north of the city, and now around the railroad trestle on south 10th Street. The daffodils make a memorable impression to those entering and exiting Noblesville.”
Besides the individual volunteers, Mayes said the planting had four groups who brought volunteers: Church of Latter Day Saints, senior girls from Noblesville High School’s National Honor Society, Girl Scout Troops 1790 and 3355, and KNB board members.
“They were each responsible for one quadrant, planting 1,000 bulbs,” she said. “Doing this together was not only fun, but something to be proud of year after year and the flowers bloom.”
