tulip planting

City of Pella staff will be joined by volunteers for city-wide tulip bed planting this weekend.

Members of the Pella and Pella Christian cross country teams will pair up with parks department staff to plant tulips in the street beds today. Parks staff reminds drivers to take extra caution when driving along Main Street and other street bed areas while planting is ongoing throughout the day. More than 105,000 tulip bulbs will be planted for next year’s Tulip Time celebration.
