Authorized Items for Grave Decorations: • Fresh cut flowers (Anytime or Season) • Artificial flowers (Non-mowing Season Only from Oct 16 – Apr 15 except at Columbarium) • Vases are available for use and are located at the bright green receptacles around the cemetery in tall metal cans marked “Vases”. Purchased vases with rubber tips or screw on will not withstand the winds • Christmas wreaths, purchased by family, may be placed one per grave at the foot of the headstone and placed as early as December 1st and must be removed by January 15th of the New Year. Wreaths should be unadorned except for one red ribbon and may be live or artificial. Any wreaths still on the graves on January 15th will be removed and discarded by cemetery staff. • Other Seasonal decorations are allowed as long as they fit in one of the cemetery-provided vases.

Yes, you are able to put flowers in vases provided, nothing can be planted. They remove them when they die. Artificial flowers are allowed during the winter months.

OK I will ask about the rules thank you.

I'll tell you later Later | Oct 8, 2019

They have very strict rules about flowers...go by the office and they can give you a paper explaining them. They did thrown away my brother's Easter flowers because I was 1 day late taking it off. It was a reusable Easter lily pot. 😪
