I found when my mom was in a retirement home, and had little room for stuff and was in her elderly age, that things they can use and use up are the best. So a boquet is a great idea. We once purchased the newspaper for a year for my mom, use each and and toss away. One time we purchased a gift certificate to have her hair done for so many times. My mom always went to the hair dresser weekly. My friend gives her aunt postage stamps as her aunt writes lots of letter. She gives her mom a grocery gift card. Hope these ideas help.
