  • Flowers along with decorations accompanying them will be removed when flowers become wilted.

*Holiday decorations cannot exceed 4 feet in height, may not use support wires, limit maintenance access, create a safety concern, nor impede on another interment space.

  • Artificial flowers, ornaments, potted plants and planter boxes, pot stands, pot racks, bridges, glass and ceramic containers, balloons, spinners, solar lights, statues, stones, or metal objects and other items that do not conform to the rules and regulations are not permitted and will be removed and discarded.
  • Stickers, photographs, notes, and anything that is attached in any fashion to the granite or marble surfaces are not permitted and will be removed to protect these stone surfaces and discarded.
  • When the flowers have wilted, they will be discarded and the vases returned to the vase storage areas. At that time, any ribbons or other decorations attached to the vases will be discarded.
