    @Tidemark, that article is so moving. Made me well-up. Although it doesn't say much about social care back then.....and I'm not sure it was as badly underfunded as it is now.

    Recommend a small-ish evergreen shrub that is nice to sit with

    Rosemary is a good idea. It flowers, used in cooking, grows quickly and growing cuttings is easy. Tough plant as it grows up mountains in Greece.
