On 14 March 2014 12 young people supported by members of Gloucestershire Area [Quaker] Meeting planted snowdrops [Galanthus nivalis] under trees beside the Quaker Service Memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum, near Lichfield, Staffordshire: ‘Brilliant white to heal the outpouring of November red.’  It is hoped that the bulbs will multiply ‘and bring a promise of spring and hope’.  [The Friend, 3 April 2015].
