Memorial Plantings

How Does It Work?

We welcome you to our nursery with a one-on-one appointment to pick out the perfect plant for your memorial planting.

A Rock Crest Gardens specialist then comes to your house to work with you to pick out the best possible spot for the planting.

During the planting service, Rock Crest Gardens will carefully incorporate your loved one’s ashes with the soil to make a special and unique soil blend that holds nutritional value and allows for the memory of your loved one to carry on through the growth of the plant.

Custom planting services available that can allow for family and friends of the deceased to spread ashes, say prays and more.

Do you have a special date in mind or specific scheduling needs? We are happy to work with you to make your experience as you wish.
