Gardeners have been busy putting in plants on a number of Darlington's roundabouts lately. This is excellent news as the floral displays on them are much admired by
many visitors as well as folk who live here.
The council's gardening team deserves top marks for the high quality colourful arrangements it makes on the roundabouts every year, as well as in the parks and in hanging baskets. There can be few places anywhere in Britain that can outshine the flowers grown in Darlington's public places.
People from other parts of the country, and even some from overseas, can be heard heaping high praise on the efforts of the green-fingered squad. It's good that we have a feature like this that we can boast about. Well done, fellows! You deserve a bonus.
