As a large selection of roses in varying colours are pre-planted within the grounds, it may be possible to selected a preferred colour of rose or particular garden from those available. We will try our utmost to accommodate your request.
The memorial plate can accommodate up to 125 characters of inscription (must include the last name) and can include a motif. The plate is placed in front of the rose during the lease period.
Please note: Each rose may have up to 2 plates.
