A floral tribute to tragic toddler Harlow Edwards has been created on the edge of Coupar Angus.
Thousands of crocuses have been planted at the town’s Common, near where the youngster was killed in a horriffic road crash during the school holidays.
The town’s Pride of Place committee invited people to help plant bulbs on Saturday morning.
The event was originally arranged as part of the Royal Horticultural Society’s Purple 4 Polio campaign.
The team said it was also a chance to remember two-year-old Harlow, whose death has shaken the close-knit community.
Chairwoman Anne Easson said the crocuses will “flower every spring in a blaze of purple on the Common.”
Harlow was killed while walking along Forfar Road when she was struck by a car. Her big sister Dionne, 17, and six-year-old brother Leon were also badly hurt.
The accident has triggered fresh calls for tougher road safety measures.
