Memorials

Beyond membership, the Foundation offers many ways for you to support the Gardens, including event sponsorships, endowments, memorials and tributes.

Honor or memorialize a loved one in a beautiful garden setting through:

• Pavers

• Trees/Shrubs

• Garden Furnishings

• Garden Structures

• Gifts in Lieu of Flowers

Pavers

Giving tribute with an engraved paver at the Florida Botanical Gardens is a wonderful way to honor that special person or moment in your life. Your tax-deductible gift of $300 will allow us to engrave and place a paver in either of two locations in the Gardens, the Memorial Paver Walkway or the Wetlands Walkway. 
      
You are allowed three (3) lines of text with a maximum of twelve (12) characters per line. Allowable characters include any character found on a standard keyboard (no emojis please). You can do names, dates, events, etc for your engraving.  Once we have you order we will contact you to confirm and discuss placement location. It normally takes six (6) weeks from the date of your order to when we receive it and place it in the Gardens.

You can also print the Memorial Paver Form and return it to the Botanical Bounty Gift Shop with your payment.

Thank for your donation to help us keep the Florida Botanical Gardens growing and beautiful.
