Later, I went out to the grocery store and bought these flowers for the anniversary of Jiji's death. It was yesterday and I wasn't able to buy them. Flower shops and grocery stores sell these bouquets for the home altar. They sell them daily year round. O-bon, the return of ancestors, is coming up and they are selling out. The bouquets are usually chrysanthemums, but these include summer flowers like dahlias and daisies. I'll tell you more about obon later.
