We'll email you a simple form to collect everything we need to create your Shooting Star Memorial Tree, along with instructions for getting the ashes to us. You can choose to use all or just a portion. Whether the ashes have been kept with you for years or are still with a funeral home, we make the process simple.
If the ashes are with you, we'll send you a secure Stewardship Kit with a prepaid return box. If they're with a funeral home, we'll arrange collection.
Once we receive the ashes, we'll prepare and cultivate your Shooting Star Memorial Tree and keep you updated along the way. Most trees are ready within four to eight weeks.
Tree Details
The Dwarf Japanese Maple symbolizes love, grace, and the beauty of an enduring connection. Its delicate leaves unfold with the seasons, changing in colour and character as the year passes. Small and graceful, it offers a quiet reminder that even the briefest life can leave a lasting imprint. As the tree grows and changes through the years, it becomes a living place to remember a little life held for far too short a time, and a love that continues through every season.
