Würd ich dir 'ne Blume schenken, immer wenn ich an dich denke, dann hättest du 'n Garten vorm Haus. Ich schwör', du kämst da gar nicht mehr raus.

This flower motif appers on the tombstone of Blume, who lived in Speyer or as she probably called it, Schpira. We know from the inscription on the stone that she was the daughter of the scholar Jacob, and she passed away on the 30th of December in 1365. It's a well preserved jewish tombstone that is almost 700 years old!! Wow!

Here the flower ornamentation appears as a symbol reference to the name, since Blume means flower in Yiddish and German. Symbols referring to the name are not uncommon on tombstones, and may also appear in the form of the lion (Löw or Juda), the bird (Tziporah or Feygl) or the deer (Hirsch or Tzvi).
