Today is World Cancer Day. Not only would we like to take a moment to remember loved ones we have lost to this disease but we would also like to honour everyone who is still fighting cancer, working towards a cure, caring for the sick, researching, and striving to prevent cancer.

The Flame lily is a beautiful flower. A hardy plant that can flourish in a tough environment. The perfect flower to remember all those who have been affected by cancer.
