I like growing plants bearing loved one’s names. The lily ‘Forever Susan’ for example. Magnolia ‘Elizabeth.’
Over time, some plants become memorials.
Twice I tried to plant a southern magnolia for a memorial garden. Both times velvet antlered deer took it for an enemy and a scratching post, splintered it beyond saving.
Free garden tours for poachers, you can camp in the backyard.

That is a great way to memorialize loved ones. :)
