Those of you who have been around a while will remember Sar, and how we said and did various things in her memory (http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/social/20020403/msgs/21675.html)
Including Dr Bob doing a great listing for her. If you want to read it and havent seen it; go to 'Psychobabble tips' (link near top of PSB page), then choose 'memorials' then 'sar'.
I wanted to let you know that some of the nasturtiums I planted for her are now in full bloom (no mean achievement with my haphazard gardening!) I choose them deliberately as they are brave, colourful and hardy plants, growing well on poor soil.
(If anyone wants to know what they look like, there's some pics at http://plants.montara.com/ListPages/FamPages/Tropaeola.html)

Don't forget to eat your nasturtiums! They taste great in salads; both the leaves and flowers have a peppery flavor. (Plucking off the leaves and flowers helps the plant get bushy, too.)
You picked a fine species for your remembrance of Sar. I believe it to be one of the smarter and brighter flowers in the garden.

How kind of you, Fi. Nasturiums were always my grandmother's flower & I plant them every year because of her. I dislike bright orange flowers but somehow these are so beautiful to me. Now I'll think of both my Grandma & Sar when I see them. Some people don't like the strong odour but to me they smell wonderful.

> FiFi,
Bless yer soul for such a thoughful memorial for Sar. I am in the process of moving HUGE nasturtiums in my yard (from the front/side yard to the back yard to hopefully cover the decaying back fence). I will now hold Sar in my heart as I am doing this work and give a little extra attention to them after the transplant to make sure they do well........Sar surely tried her best to do well.
Tears and smiles.
Thank you Fi.
