If Chery doesn't care for cut flowers, what about a dish garden?
I was thinking about a plant, again I would want to check with Jamie first though.
J, what is a 'dish garden?'

You've seen 'em Stringer... You just didn't realize it. ;)
DISH GARDEN - This arrangement is most seen in florists. Many plants grown together to be used indoors for a focal point of greenery.
If there are any flowers, they're always of the cut variety, and placed in the arraignment.
European Dish Garden
This is very much like creating a planted container, except all the plants remain in their own containers.
They are quick, interchangeable, seasonal, and easy to make. And, they perk up anyone's day.
- Step one: Select a shallow saucer about three inches in depth and about 12 - 14 inches in diameter.
- Step two: Sprinkle a little charcoal on the bottom. This keeps the soil, water, and materials from getting sour.
- Step three: Decide on three to four green foliage plants with the same light and watering requirements. All in about 3 - 4 inch pots. Some trailing, some full.
- Step four: Arrange the plants to show contrast.
- Step five: Add some blooming plants in four inch pots or fresh cut stems in water vials. Pack with sphagnum moss. Keep moss moist.
- Step six: For interest, add natural gravel or a colorful side bow.
European dish gardens are meant to be bright and colorful. They can be kept fresh by merely changing the cut flowers or changing out the blooming pots.

I received this at 3:43 AM this morning from Jamie:
"As soon as the special bed and mattress is delivered and the other things (chair and table) then she can come home. It could be in a week or two. She has pain in her left shoulder and the doc's are trying everything in order to prevent it from breaking, too."
Jaime
I've again asked Jamie to tell Chery that we all love her and want her to be happy and be without pain. And of course, we miss her very much.

Got some GREAT news today, Chery is going home from the hospital and she sounds 'spunky!' That's her fighting spirit... gotta love that gal. :):):)
"It looks like Mom will be coming home this week and the stuff , bed etc. will be delivered, too. She had her stitches pulled today and can't wait to go home. I'll let you know or Mom can tell you later."
Keep in touch,
Jaime
