Bringing flowers and plants to the cemetery, on the graves of the dead, is a custom which has ancient roots and concerns, crosswise, the peoples of all religions.

The floral tributes, as we know, represent a tribute to honor the dead, one of the many ways we put in place to express our feelings towards the missing loved ones, but, in places of worship, they are also an aesthetic expression, because they add value to the tombstone, giving it color and beauty.

Therefore, if we choose to adorn the tomb, using fresh flowers in the cemetery flower-vases, it's preferable to purchase resistant floral compositions with prolonged duration; so it's better to choose seasonal flowers from local floriculture, because the imported ones wither before.

Among the most durable flowers stand out on all chrysanthemums and carnations, very resistant to external weather conditions; but equally valid are the cyclamens, the pansy and the heather; all of these ones are long-lived plants especially in the winter months.
