This is such a sweet story and the pictures are fantastic. Imagine nobody knew about this secret garden for 17 years. I hope somebody photographs it when the daffodils are in bloom. go to the link for the original story in the Daily Mail for more pictures and story.

How thoughtful. After years of duking it out in the yard, garden, I would feel quite honored if someone did that in my memory.

Widower's secret tribute to wife, spied from above - World Watch - CBS News
wow, it is too early in the morning for tears I thought. thanks for sharing. My best friends husband did something very special for her after she died. He took all the plants that were sent (ones that would grow outdoors) made a plant garden and her ashes are in that garden. it is on near the patio so in the evening he can sit outside, drink his ice tea and be with her...
