CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Creighton Moeller’s garden is blooming with generosity – in the form of tulips and daffodils

The initial plan was to plant 4,000 bulbs on the front yard of his Chapel Hill home, but now, Moeller's garden has 7,000.

His passion for planting has a purpose. The flowers are a fundraiser for Project Stackhouse, benefiting the therapy dog program at UNC Children’s Hospital.

The project is named after his dog, Stackhouse.

Every dollar made from donations or flower sales will go to the program, Moeller said.

“Next year, now that I have the experience, I can go to double the amount,” he said.

Contributions can be mailed to Project Stackhouse, c/o Creighton Moeller, 12 Elmstead Place, Chapel Hill, N.C. 27517. Checks should be made payable to N.C. Children’s Promise.
