Floramorial
Cremation ash can now be used to grow trees and flowers.
Floramorial soil was created to convert cremation ash into a planting medium to grow a decorative plant, bush or tree as a living memorial. Cremation ash is an inert, granular material like stone or sand that can now be transformed into plant food thanks to recent developments in horticultural science.
This is an exciting new answer to the question, “What should I do with the ashes?” Floramorial soil opens up a universe of floral species which can be used to commemorate the life of your loved one.
