Graveside flower delivery in New Mexico

A local Runner places a hand-crafted arrangement at any grave in New Mexico 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

New Mexico's graves are in Albuquerque's Sunset and Mount Calvary, in the Spanish churchyards of the Rio Grande villages, in the pueblos, and in national cemeteries at Santa Fe and Fort Bayard. Desert sun and wind shape what lasts at a grave here.

Desert sun is the main thing at a grave here: it fades color faster than anywhere else in the country. Every arrangement is hand-crafted in UV-resistant outdoor silk, and lighter colors last longest. Winters are mild, and the cemetery calendar is nearly year-round. Our guide to cemetery flower rules explains how to check a specific cemetery's dates.

Every delivery ends with a photo like these, sent to the family and kept on the memorial page.

A few of the places our Runners have been, each linking to a memorial page with the delivery photos. Any other cemetery in the state works the same way.

The New Mexico cemetery calendar

What holds up, and when the grounds crews clear, in this climate.

Spring (February to April)

The best season at the grave: mild, bright and busy with Easter and Mother's Day visits. Cemeteries do their main clean-up around March.

Summer (May to September)

Extreme heat and sun. Fresh flowers last hours; silk in whites, yellows and blues fades slowest. Runners deliver early in the day.

Fall (October to November)

Temperatures ease and cemeteries fill again. Mums and harvest colors for Thanksgiving hold well in the dry air.

Winter (December to January)

Mild and sunny. Holiday arrangements last well into the new year; national cemeteries are inside their silk window.

Do you deliver to any cemetery in New Mexico?

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.

Can you place silk flowers at Fort Bayard National Cemetery?

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.

How long do the flowers last in New Mexico?

UV-resistant silk in lighter colors holds for months even in desert sun. Fresh flowers last hours in summer.

Will I know the flowers were placed?

A photo of the arrangement at the headstone is emailed to you after every delivery and added to the memorial page for the family.
