Memorial Tree FAQs

Where will my loved one’s memorial tree be planted? How is it done?
We're proud to partner with a network of trusted planting organizations, such as the United States Forest Service and Arbor Day Foundation. All plantings take place in forests that are in great need and are completed by professionals who are overseen and evaluated by foresters on the ground.

We carefully select and plant trees that are native to the specific area. This means that the species of trees may vary from region to region throughout the country. We take great care to ensure that the trees we plant thrive and contribute to the local ecosystem in a meaningful way.

Can I visit the forest where the memorial tree is planted?
Many of the forests of greatest need are located in areas with rough terrain and limited accessibility. It's important to note that trees are planted in the areas where they are most needed, rather than in easily accessible or convenient locations for visitation.

If you would like the specific location of your loved ones tree planting, please contact us by calling 1-888-932-7658 or sending an email to  <mailto:store at helloflowers.com> store at helloflowers.com.

We kindly ask that visitors respect the significance of these planting areas and join us in our efforts to restore and preserve the natural ecosystems for future generations. By doing so, we can all help create a healthier and more sustainable planet for years to come.
