About the Contest

This
spring, nearly 3 million daffodils will bloom in New York City as part
of the Daffodil Project, a living 9/11 memorial. From March 23 to May
1, 2006, submit your photo of a blooming daffodil in any of NYC’s five
boroughs.

The Daffodil Project was originally created to
commemorate September 11. Now in its fifth year, the annual effort—led
by New Yorkers for Parks (NY4P) in cooperation with the Department of
Parks and Recreation (DPR)—not only brings together volunteers and
raises the spirits of New Yorkers, but also draws attention to the
needs of neglected parks and open spaces citywide.

The
Daffodil Project is made possible in part by the generosity of a Dutch
bulb supplier, Hans van Waardenburg of B&K Flowerbulbs, who has
pledged to donate 500,000 daffodil bulbs to the project each year as
long as there are volunteers willing to plant them. More than 20,000
volunteers have responded to his challenge so far. And thanks to their
efforts, nearly 3 million yellow daffodils will bloom in over 1,300
individual sites across the five boroughs this spring.

 

Daffodil photographs must be taken in one
of NYC’s 5 boroughs in the spring of 2006. Other photographs will be
disqualified. Please provide the date and exact location (be as
specific as possible) where the photograph was taken.
