The inside, however, has undergone a total transformation. Floor-to-ceiling flowers, plants and vegetables fill the Flower House, located at 11751 Dequindre, just west of I-75. Saturday marked the first time Bowden, 71, of Southfield had been inside the home in nearly three decades. She drives by it all the time, though, on her way to church.

Thomas, who played only four games last year after he transferred and missed the first month of this season with an injury, made six three-point field goals.
