The gift of a memorial tree for loved ones will carry on giving for years to come. It is a warm and moving way of keeping a lost loved one's memory alive and creates a tranquil place to visit and treasure the happy memories shared.
A memorial tree planting is a wonderful way for someone to create a place of remembrance for a loved one. A way of being at one with nature and perhaps even a special spot to scatter the loved ones ashes too, so that they can always be together. You can add a plaque for remembrance, a stone, or even a special bench. I'll add some links to those below.
