Graveside flower delivery in Texas
A local Runner places a hand-crafted arrangement at any grave in Texas 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
Texas is big enough to have every kind of cemetery: the Texas State Cemetery in Austin, Glenwood in Houston, the Hill Country German churchyards, the Panhandle prairie plots, and national cemeteries at Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Fort Sam Houston, Fort Bliss, Kerrville and San Antonio. A Runner network across the state reaches all of them.
Summers are long, hot and humid, which is why every arrangement is hand-crafted in outdoor silk: it is still in place and still in color when the family visits at Thanksgiving. Most cemeteries here clear decorations before mowing season in March and often again in the fall. Our guide to cemetery flower rules explains how to check a specific cemetery's dates.

The Texas 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 at most cemeteries. Easter and Mother's Day deliveries placed after it stay for months. Pollen coats everything for a few weeks; a rinse restores a silk arrangement.
Summer (June to September)
The hardest season. Fresh flowers last a day; silk in yellows, whites and blues fades slowest in the sun. Weekly mowing means flowers belong in the vase or on the stone, never on the grass. Hurricane season can close coastal cemeteries for a few days.
Fall (October to November)
The best months at the grave. Mums and harvest colors for Thanksgiving; many cemeteries clear summer decorations in October, so deliver after.
Winter (December to February)
Mild and wet. Holiday arrangements placed in early December hold through New Year; national cemeteries are inside their silk window all winter.

Flowers at a grave anywhere in Texas

Send FlowersQuestions about Texas 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 placed in June is still in place and in color in September, which fresh flowers cannot do in this heat. Lighter colors fade slowest in full sun.
A photo of the arrangement at the headstone is emailed to you after every delivery and added to the memorial page for the family.
