Edina Bulb Trust Project

20th Mar 2025

The 'Spring Bulbs for Schools' project has given Primary 7 the opportunity to be part of a real science investigation where they will contribute to the final result. This is a live experiment where there are no known outcomes and no "right" answers. The young P7 scientists have been responsible for recording the rainfall and temperature each school day from planting day (late October) until the end of the project (end of March). They have watched their daffodils and crocuses grow and recorded when they flower, and the height of the plants when the flowers open. They have investigated the effect of the climate on the growth of the spring bulbs.
