Graveside flower delivery in Michigan
A local Runner places a hand-crafted arrangement at any grave in Michigan and sends you the photo, wherever in the country you are.
- Placed by local Runners
- Any cemetery, all 50 states
- A photo after every delivery
Michigan's graves run from Elmwood and Woodlawn in Detroit to the lakeshore towns and the Upper Peninsula, with Great Lakes National Cemetery in Holly and Fort Custer National in Augusta serving veterans. Families left for Chicago, Florida and the Sun Belt for decades; a Runner can still reach any grave from Monroe to Marquette.
Cold winters, hot summers and a mowing season that runs from April to October. Every arrangement is hand-crafted in outdoor silk so it survives both extremes. Most cemeteries clear decorations in early spring and again before winter. Our guide to cemetery flower rules explains how to check a specific cemetery's dates.

The Michigan cemetery calendar
What holds up, and when the grounds crews clear, in this climate.
Spring (April to May)
The spring clean-up comes in April once the ground thaws. Easter, Mother's Day and Memorial Day deliveries placed after it stay through summer.
Summer (June to September)
Hot, humid and mowed weekly. Flowers belong in the vase or on the stone; lighter silk colors fade slowest in full sun.
Fall (October to November)
Mums and harvest colors for Thanksgiving. Many cemeteries clear in late October or November before snow; deliver after.
Winter (December to March)
Snow and hard freezes. Turning vases are stored; a saddle or an evergreen arrangement against the stone stays above the snow. Silk does not mind the cold.

Send FlowersQuestions about Michigan deliveries
Yes. City, county, church, private memorial parks and the veterans cemeteries. Give us the cemetery name and the name on the headstone; a Find a Grave link helps the Runner find the grave.
In the permitted windows: roughly mid-October through mid-April and about ten days either side of Easter, Memorial Day and Veterans Day. Fresh flowers are welcome any day. Your Runner follows the posted dates.
A silk arrangement lasts from the spring clean-up to the fall one, through heat and frost. Fresh flowers last days.
A photo of the arrangement at the headstone is emailed to you after every delivery and added to the memorial page for the family.
