A daughter has invested in a memorial to her mother which will pay tribute to her life at the dawn of each new spring.
And the daffodil bulbs being planted in memory of Eileen Walker will also pay thanks for the care provided by the Marie Curie hospice in Bradford.
Mum-of-two Amanda Lobben, 37, sponsored bulbs which will be planted in the Marie Curie Field of Hope in November.
And each spring Eileen's flowers will bloom among a wealth of blossoming daffodils - each one paying tribute to a loved one or offering thanks to the charity.
Amanda said the care provided by the hospice on Maudsley Street, Bradford, had been priceless.
Eileen, who died last year at the age of 57 from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), had spent her final weeks being cared for at the hospice, which also helps cancer sufferers and victims of heart failure.
Amanda said: "It actually allowed me to be her daughter again in the last few weeks, rather than being troubled with acting as her carer. I will be indebted to them for the rest of my life."
Amanda, of Arundale Park, Buttershaw, Bradford, said bereavement counselling provided by the hospice after her mother's death helped her get through a bleak time.
"If it hadn't been for that I don't know whether I would still be here or not. And even if I was I would be in not as good a shape as I am now," she said.
Amanda said as she was still gathering strength following her mum's death she had asked Marie Curie to plant her daffodil bulbs on her behalf.
"Obviously we will go and see the daffodils with the children. All four of my mum's grandchildren were the be-all and end-all to her. I think that's why she kept going as long as she did.
"That is why this is so important, because this is a tribute to her," added the full-time-mum.
Those wanting to sponsor daffodils in the Telegraph & Argus-backed Fields of Hope campaign will be able to have their bulbs planted at either Lister Park, in Manningham, on November 11 between 10am and noon, or at Gilstead Recreation Ground, in Bingley, on November 18 at the same time.
The campaign is part of a national Marie Curie scheme during which more than one million bulbs are expected to be planted. All money raised through the district scheme will go towards the hospice.
