Thinking of My Mother

My aunt and uncle gave this plant to my mother in February 2003 after her cancer diagnosis.  When she died later that year, I brought the plant to my house.  I've given small clumps to other family members, and it is still full and thriving.  I especially like it when it has those delicate white flowers.  It sits on the same table as my laptop computer, so as I work here, the plant is less than 18" away.  I love the plant and find comfort in it's growth.   The uncle died last year in his early 90's, and the aunt is confined in a facility for folks who are losing memory and can't live  independently.  I took it outside today for this photo.  You might like it in large.
