The first weekend in November marks All Saints' Day – an old Christian tradition, and a day when we honor the memory of our loved ones. During this weekend, many of us visit cemeteries and memorial gardens to light candles and lay down autumn flowers, wreaths, and decorations on the graves. As darkness falls, thousands of candles beautifully illuminate cemeteries across the country.
Candles and grave lanterns
Grave lanterns, decorations, concrete hearts, and other ornaments adorn the plant arrangements. Lanterns for grave candles help them burn longer and prevent them from going out when it's windy and rainy.
Plant beautiful autumn plants on the grave
- Ready-made flower bowls
We have ready-made bowls with heather in different colors and other green plants that are perfect for autumn. You can also combine them with conifers of different heights and shapes, such as white spruce and cypress. - Hebe
Hebe is a small green plant that comes in various types and shades. They look beautiful when planted together, forming small cushions. - Heather and silver wreath
A classic combination is heather and silver wreath. You can also add some spruce branches around to frame it nicely.
A bouquet of roses
At Plantasjen, you can find beautiful roses in many different colors and heights. Such a bouquet is perfect lying on the ground or standing in a discreet grave vase, which can easily be placed into the ground by the grave or memorial garden.
Light a candle wherever you are
Even if you can't visit the grave, lighting a candle is a beautiful way to remember those who are no longer with us. Grave candles made to burn for a long time in cold and windy weather work perfectly at the entrance or on the patio, in lanterns designed for larger candles. Just make sure they stand securely and are not placed near flammable materials.
