Graveside flower delivery in Nebraska
A local Runner places a hand-crafted arrangement at any grave in Nebraska 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
Nebraska's graves are in Omaha's Forest Lawn and Prospect Hill, Wyuka in Lincoln, Omaha National Cemetery, Fort McPherson National in Maxwell, and the small cemeteries of every county seat along the Platte and across the Sandhills.
Wind is the constant here, with hard winters and hot, dry summers. Every arrangement is hand-crafted in outdoor silk and placed so it stays put: seated in the vase, on a saddle, or staked against the stone. Cemeteries clear in spring before mowing and again in the fall. Our guide to cemetery flower rules explains how to check a specific cemetery's dates.

The Nebraska 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. Deliveries placed after it stay through summer. Spring wind is strongest; low, compact arrangements hold best.
Summer (June to September)
Hot, dry and bright. Silk in lighter colors fades slowest in the sun; weekly mowing means flowers go in the vase or on the stone.
Fall (October to November)
Mums and harvest colors for Thanksgiving. Many cemeteries clear in late October before winter; deliver after.
Winter (December to March)
Snow, ice and wind. A saddle seated firmly on an upright stone stays put and visible; vases are stored. Silk does not mind the cold.

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 seated in the vase or on a saddle lasts a full season through wind and sun. Fresh flowers last a day in summer.
A photo of the arrangement at the headstone is emailed to you after every delivery and added to the memorial page for the family.
