What kind of plant would you like growing over your grave?

If your choice is to be buried. Actually I would just prefer my grave to be covered with rocks and white gravel because I think it would be a bit much to expect anyone to tend to it regularly.

    A Sword fern they are pretty hardy plus they get those edible Fiddle heads on them. Cheers!

    I don't want an inground burial.  I prefer not to take up real estate that I can't enjoy.

    I'm being cremated. It's the only chance I'll ever have to get a smoking hot body.

    Daisies, so that I can push them up.

      Gee, great question. I’ve never thought about it before. In fact, I’ve never given much thought to arrangements surrounding my imminent demise. Maybe subconsciously I think I’m immortal, or that I should be. 

      Now that you’ve planted the idea in my head of considering the choices, I’ll have to opt for no tree whatsoever anywhere near a grave. I’ve seem seen what tree roots can do over time to anything around them, so I wouldn’t want my box uprooted or run through with roots.

    I have them well thought out. My obituary is half written to make it easier on my children to try and figure it all out.  My grave was donated to me and I am ready anytime.  My expiration date gets closer and closer every day.

    A weeping willow tree.  I'm always thirsty and the willow makes sure it gets plenty of water.
