Default Potted plants this time of year

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Janet saying
something like:

I would contact the crematorium by phone for advice
and lean on their long experience; or ask the undertaker.

Many people nowadays request no flowers, especially at cremations. All
the crems I've been to, provide floral arrangements which stay in place
for each service to grace the occasion. Unlike churches, their booking
schedules often run so tight that there is little time between them,
for setting up/taking down additional floral displays etc in the same
room as the service.


I've contacted the crem and they inform me they don't have
semi-permanent floral arrangments, so it's down to each funeral party to
arrange their own. As you say, there might be a rush to clear the place
between bookings, so they'd not be too appreciative of clearing out a
load of stuff.
I'm still undecided - I might go for a large /wide pot of something
suitable/whatever's available, just to provide a bit of colour.
She picked the wrong time of year, is the problem
