20 Nov Planting a Memorial Tree
Planting a tree in remembrance or as a memorial to someone is a wonderful way to serve honor to their memory. In fact, planting a tree will aid in a living tribute to them now and in the future to come. Planting a tree also can help with easing a little of the unremarkable grief that one often feels when losing a loved one or special person. You see the tree and thrive and grow to symbolize their memory lives on even if they are physically unable to be here.
Many times when looking to plant a tree in memory of someone, the person or people are not sure how to go about picking the right tree. Dan, a certified arborist with All About Trees based in Phoenix, Arizona, lends his advice and expertise when it comes to planting trees. While most of his time is spent tending to his Gilbert tree trimming service, his company has planted many trees for clients in remembrance of someone special. While a lot of the time people will pick a tree based on what the favorite type of tree was of the loved one in remembrance, not all will know exactly what or if they even really had a favorite tree. This is why he says it is great to pick a tree based on the personality of the person. It helps to make memorial tree planting a little more unique to the individual.
