Flower Urns

Flower Programs and Prices

Flower urns are always welcome in the Lakefield Cemetery. For those who do not want the task of caring for their own urns, the cemetery can plant, place and look after flower urns for you. This includes storing permanent pots over the winter, protected from the elements, in our greenhouse.

See our available programs below:

Spring Pansy Program

It couldn’t be simpler – a 12″ bowl with your choice of Pink, Yellow or Blue Pansies. These cold tolerant plants are placed out the week of May 4 and remain on the lot until the week of June 5. Spring rains and heavy dews will keep them blooming for that period of time.

$15.00 + 1.95 HST = $16.95

Fall Mum Program

A 10 inch pot of flowering mums in your choice of colour is placed out the week of September 21 and remains on the lot until the week of October 21. These flowers would be watered by nature for that time period. Heavy dews and rain will be adequate to maintain the plants in good shape.

$15.00 + 1.95HST = $16.95

Annual Flower Program

The Annual Filling fee includes the planting, watering, weeding and fertilizing as necessary of family supplied pots, at the rate shown on the Price List, billed April 1st of each year.

Flower urns are also available from the Cemetery Office. Urns are subject to breakage so families are notified when replacement is necessary.

Endowment Urns

The Endowment Urn fee includes the planting, watering, weeding and fertilizing as necessary of Cemetery supplied urns at the rate shown on the Price List. A portion of this fee is set aside in trust, to care for this service for 10 or 20 years.

Planting

Our urns are planted early May with Canadian grown bedding plants. They are then cared for in our greenhouse while they mature and bloom. Flower urns are placed in the cemetery when all danger of frost is past and are cared for until the end of August.

All urns are removed mid-September when we begin fall cleanup.
