The Crocus Project is an Irish initiative, whereby Holocaust Education Trust Ireland, provides yellow Crocus bulbs for school pupils to plant in memory of the 1.5 million Jewish children who perished in the Holocaust and thousands of other children who were victims of Nazi atrocities.
The yellow flowers recall the yellow Stars of David that Jews were forced to wear under Nazi rule.
We planted our crocus bulbs in a star shape last October and when they bloomed in early February, we remembered what they represented and recalled the children who perished in the Holocaust
