I’d like to plant a small wild flower plant on a friend’s grave in the beginning of June. Any suggestions?

Question

I have been told a normal sized rose is too big and don’t really like miniature roses. Do you have any suggestions for wild flower plants ..she loved poppies, cornflowers, wild orchids, snowdrops.
Thanks.

Answer 1

All of these wild flowers would be a beautiful gesture, especially since your friend loved them. Be sure to use some fresh potting soil to give them a good start. Most cemeteries have restrictions on what can be planted. For example, some may limit to spring bulbs such as daffodils (which return every year) or tulips. Snowdrops are a bulb and would work.
