Manure for flowers NEW YORK (AP) - “We use zebra manure for striped tiger lilies and elephant manure for growing giant amaryllis lilies,” says Bronx Botanical Gardens horticulturist Robert Russo. The gardens has been using animal manure from the Bronx Zoo for more than 20 years as a fertilizer and estimates it has cut compost and fertilizer bills by nearly $50,000 a year. But the zoo’s supply exceeds the garden’s needs, so the zoo may begin selling the stuff on the open market. DISCOUNT CENTER 134 SOUTH HILL ST. SALE STARTS THURSDAY 9 A.M.
