  Sorry for your loss.
  As it is not the season for bluebell flowers it is a good time to plant the bulbs.Could this be done for her grave?
  Maybe a 'symbolic' bluebell could be buried with her,for example a brooch or other item.

  Although not technically a bluebell, there is a blue liriope flowering just now (think blue muscari). That might do. Or perhaps there are still some campanulas out - they have 'blue bells'.
  Hope that helps.

  Not sure about bluebells this time of year what about a perfume I buy from Penhaligons in London and I know they do a bluebell. maybe she could wear it and have the bottle in the coffin to be with her forever.

  If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

  Hi, thanks for all your suggestions. Really like the idea of the bluebell charm because she was never keen on artificial flowers. Thanks again.
