a good friend used to buy a bulb garden for her grandmother every spring. it became a bond and a tradition. after her grandmother passed away, her husband began buying her a bulb garden every spring, in memory of her grandmother. you married extremely well, i told her. well, she said, i did coach him. so he buys you a bulb garden every spring in memory of your grandmother and in addition to that, he’s coachable? you married extremely well, i told her.

i look forward to stillblog every morning. it is a beautiful “site”. : ) today’s is beautiful as well. But, what is a bulb garden? I know bulbs, i know gardens. Is it a name for spring bouquets?
hi betsy,
it’s just one of those baskets of about-to-bloom bulbs you can buy at all the florists this time of year.
the little plastic label stuck in the basket called it a “Watch ’em Grow Bulb Garden” so i used the same name.

how to sweet to see the the bulb garden live forever on your blog. sweet memories of my grandma Minnie. and yes MJ, i agree, i married well. my grandma shared the same thoughts with me in her last days with us.
this does look like life to me and as such it happens to the memory of one. very nice.
