Even after two eternal, painful years, flowers still graced the headstone, every Sunday, and poinsettias every Christmas. |
Lavender, rosemary and thyme gathered in thick clumps under the windows, with poinsettias, passionflower, marigolds, marguerites and hollyhocks growing wild in the borders. |
The large room was ornamented with holly branches, poinsettias, wreaths, and candles. |
It belongs to the very large Euphorbia family along with other popular ornamental plants such as poinsettias and crotons. |
And remember to get your poinsettias and your Thanksgiving and Christmas cacti ready for well-timed holiday color. |
When I visited Heather's grave site in December 1997, the headstone was flanked by potted poinsettias, fresh carnations, a Christmas wreath and several angel figurines. |
