If your friend was interested in a particular flower if you ask the RHS they can put you in touch with the national society & I'm sure they will be all to willing to get a new variety named in honour of our friend for a doantion. I know the National Chrysanthemum society do that.

Reading this thread has given me a kick up the bum! I've been putting my test off as I'm sick of doctors and hospitals and tests(another nasty batch due on tuesday)but realise now this is no excuse to neglect another area of health.My next door but one neighbour died 2weeks ago and she was only 39.It's made my better half and myself descuse a little bit about what we want when we die with regards funerals etc,which we've never talked about.We both want green buriels,and trees and plants growing in our memories.Hopefully wont be for a long time yet!Planted trees and flowers in the garden when my dad died with cancer,and they are a lovely lasting memory of him.
