I hope there's nothing in the rules against this?
I was visiting my 93-year-old step-father last week who lives 200 miles away.
He visits my Mum's grave every Sunday but wasn't in good health, so I said I'd take some fresh flowers to the cemetery.
These are the ones (lower left) I placed on her grave.

My Dad died when I was only 18 months old and his grave is in an older part of the cemetery, so I just placed a few remaining daffodils on his.

With just a handful left, I thought I'd wander up to the top part of the cemetery where I knew there was another family grave but hadn't visited for a few years.
It was looking a bit forlorn and there was just the base of an old plant pot, so I cut the stems down and placed them in there.

There's a bit of a poignant story with the above, as Albert Tudor was my great-grandfather.
He was a ship's captain sailing back and forth from Liverpool and Ireland.
When his son (my grandfather) was fifteen years old he employed him to work alongside him.
After a few voyages, some of the other crew complained that they though my grandfather was being given special treatment.
My great-grandfather wasn't happy about the situation and told my grandfather to find employment on another ship.
On the very next voyage, my great-grandfather's ship went down with all lives lost.
If my grandfather would have been on it, I wouldn't be here now to relate the tale.
I've made a vow that the next time I visit I will tend to the grave and place some nice flowers.
