520    "Iris Maynard lost her husband in World War II, her 
       daughter to illness and, finally, her reason to live. 
       Walled off from the world for decades behind the towering 
       fence surrounding her home, Iris has built anew family ...
       of flowers. Iris propagates her own daylilies and roses 
       while tending to a garden filled with the heirloom starts 
       that keep the memories of her loved ones alive. When Abby 
       Peterson moves next door with her family--a husband 
       traumatized by his service in the Iraq War and a young 
       daughter searching for stability--Iris is reluctantly yet 
       inevitably drawn into her boisterous neighbor's life, 
       where, united by loss and a love of flowers, she and Abby 
       tentatively unearth their secrets, and help each other 
       discover how much life they have yet to live"--Provided by
