Flower Policy
Loma Vista understands and respects the need for families to show respect
and love for those interred in our Memorial Park through the placement
of floral offerings and the gravesite, niche or crypt.
The following rules and regulations regarding flower placement and
removal have been enacted in order to preserve the aesthetic beauty of our
Park. In addition, these policies will help to insure the safety of all who
visit our Park as well as those who maintain them.

metal of approved size and design and unless wholly set beneath the level
of the lawn. Such receptacles may be purchased from and placed by the
cemetery. The cemetery, however shall not be liable for lost, misplaced
or broken flower receptacles. The cemetery shall have the authority to
remove all floral design, flowers, weeds, trees, shrubs, plants, or herbage of
