Graveside flower delivery in Tennessee

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

Tennessee has Elmwood in Memphis, Mount Olivet in Nashville, Old Gray in Knoxville, and more national cemeteries than almost any state: Nashville, Memphis, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Mountain Home, Middle Tennessee, Fort Donelson and Stones River. The hills are full of family cemeteries reached by gravel road.

Summers are hot, winters are short, and the mowing season runs from March to November. Every arrangement is hand-crafted in outdoor silk so it stays in place between visits. Most cemeteries clear decorations before mowing starts in March and again in the fall. Our guide to cemetery flower rules explains how to check a specific cemetery's dates.

The Tennessee cemetery calendar

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

Spring (March to May)

The spring clean-up lands in March. Easter and Mother's Day deliveries placed after it stay for months. Pollen season coats everything; a rinse restores a silk arrangement.

Summer (June to September)

Hot and humid. Fresh flowers last a day or two; silk in lighter colors fades slowest. Weekly mowing means flowers belong in the vase or on the stone.

Fall (October to November)

The best-looking months in a Southern cemetery. Mums and harvest colors for Thanksgiving; deliver after the October clean-up.

Winter (December to February)

Mild, with an occasional freeze. Holiday arrangements placed in early December hold through New Year; national cemeteries are inside their silk window all winter.

Questions about Tennessee deliveries

Do you deliver to any cemetery in Tennessee?

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 Chattanooga 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 Tennessee?

A silk arrangement placed in spring is still in place and in color at the end of summer. Lighter colors fade slowest in full sun.

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.
