New flowerbed purchases start with the preparing of the flowerbed by removing the exisiting soil to a depth of 18 inches and replacing it with a garden soil mix. We take special care of the flowerbed from the time of planting (no later than second week of June) until the mid-October.

The annual flowerbed program consists of the following services:

• Planting of Annual Flowers
• Fertilizing
• Watering
• Weeding
• Edging of Flower Beds

Beechwood?s Horticultural Department offers 7 different flowerbed options for you to choose. Beechwood?s Chief Horticulturist reserves the right to change a flower selection to ensure you have the best option for your location. If you are unsure whether your lot is a sunny or shady location, please select the option.

Climate & Weather Disclaimer

As climate change continues to drive extreme and unpredictable weather patterns, including prolonged droughts and periods of excessive rainfall, Beechwood Cemetery cannot guarantee the performance, longevity, or appearance of flowerbeds throughout the entire season. These environmental factors may impact growth rates, bloom quality, and overall plant resilience despite our team?s best professional efforts.

Our Horticultural Department remains committed to delivering exceptional care and adapting our practices to support the long-term sustainability of our grounds. We appreciate your understanding as we navigate these evolving conditions.

All orders received after May 15 will be deferred to the 2027 calendar year.
