When I slump over into the sleep from which I will not awaken,never mind the cut flowers and wreaths. Buy bags of plump daffodils and plant them in your yard, in the park, anywhere that people can see and enjoy them. if it happens at a time when bulbs are not available, wait till they are- there's no rush.
Daffodils are as long lived as trees and in many ways more resilient. They die back when the heat of summer begins and return in February when they are needed most.
Be there a soul so crusted and dead
That it cannot smile
When a daffodil raises its head?
Don't expect that you'll preceed me, but if you do, I'll plant a bushel.
