Cemetery Decoration Guidelines
Green Hill Memorial Gardens has been in use since 1962, with many burials each year. Seasonal decoration guidelines keep the grounds orderly, safe and beautiful for every family who visits.
April 1 to December 1
Only cut flowers and small artificial bouquets are permitted, placed in regular vases. For three days before Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day and Memorial Day, other decorations such as potted plants and wreaths may be used. They will be picked up one week after each of those days.
December 1 to February 1
Winter decorations such as wreaths, blankets and artificial flowers are welcome. All Christmas flowers and decorations are removed on February 1.
March, and rules all year
In March the grounds are fertilized, sprayed and cleaned, so decorations must be in vases and no wreaths or boxes may be left on the lawns. At any time of year, please use no glass or pottery containers and no wire to anchor baskets or pots, as these can cause injuries when thrown by a mower or trimmer. No planting is allowed at any time.
