Jewish Memorial Gardens offers family members the opportunity to honour the memory of their loved ones by purchasing flowers, which consist of white begonias and red begonias, that are planted each year by our dedicated cemetery staff.
Not only does this memorialize our family members, it also serves to beautify our cemeteries.
Planting is done in early to mid-June, after the risk of frost has passed, and is normally completed by Father’s Day, weather permitting. The flowers are removed after the first frost in the fall.
Flower orders are taken from March through April. Late orders may be accommodated based on availability, and may incur a small late charge.
Twenty-five year planting contracts are available eliminating the inconvenience of paying annually, and will protect against inevitable price increases.

F.Y.I.
- Cemetery regulations do not permit family members to plant flowers or plants on gravesites.
- For flowers to be planted by Jewish Memorial Gardens, a monument must be present on the grave.
- Please be advised that you are purchasing a service; therefore, the purchase of flowers does not qualify for a charitable donation receipt, as per C.R.A. regulations.
