I'd seen this idea a few different times, a memorial garden. At first I was a little bummed - we live in a townhome community and we aren't able to plant our own gardens. But then I found this giant planter that I decided would be perfect.
We waited for the weather to steady just a little bit while I planned what I wanted to plant. Then we went to Gertens. Derrick picked out some plants for some other planters we had, I picked out some Tulips - one of my favorites, some Pansies - Derrick's favorite, and some Daffodils - Gabriel's birth flower.

| The first day we planted them the daffodils hadn't bloomed yet... |
 |
| But today, two days later, they're starting to bloom! |
 |
| I was so excited to see his birthflower blooming!!! |
 |
| These are little stones that came in a kit my mom gave me, so I just placed them sporatically around the planter. |
I love his little garden, its so perfect for him. I was thrilled to be able to plant Daffodils. I'd learned they are typically bulbs that need to be planted in the fall. This was disappointing for me, so I was extatic when I found them ready to be planted!
