Trees are a living testament. Purchase one today.
The oaks and elms, the Southern magnolias, and the redbud and gingko trees that provide shade for visitors have suffered the last few years. Wind storms have toppled Elmwood's trees. Some have been removed for disease. We want to keep the grounds of Elmwood shady and lush, and that's why we hope you'll plant a tree.
Elmwood offers a memorial and honorarium plant program to its family and friends. If you would like to purchase a planting at Elmwood in honor or memory of a loved one, please make your donation here.
The staff of Elmwood Cemetery will work to plant your tree as close to the requested site as possible, but in some cases trees will be planted to best suit the long range plans of the cemetery arboretum.
Available Plantings:
Princeton elm, white oak, red oak, tulip poplar, and Southern magnolia - $500
Holly, cedar, cherry, sycamore, gingko - $300
