Program Details


Give A Tree: Donate a Tree for $500 or $1200

Whether you are giving in celebration of a birthday, marriage, or retirement; or naming a tree in honor of a loved one, we are proud to be a place where you can celebrate these important moments in life.

Our current Memorial Tree offerings are already in place. Unless specified below, these trees have been planted along our newly renovated Old Garden Road and are available at two different price points. Please choose from one of the tree lists below. If needed, please reach out to Caroline Jones to inquire about a specific trees' location along Old Garden Road, or to inquire about our Memorial Tree offerings in the Japanese Garden.

Donated trees will include a plaque with a a 3-4 line dedicatory message. Ornamental plaques are silver, while Shade plaques are black and gold, measuring approximately 5x7. Dedications last for the life of the tree, which is expected to last 10 years. If a memorial tree does not last 10 years, the Garden will replace the tree at no additional cost to the donor.

Please Note: As is customary for Japanese Gardens throughout the world, our Japanese Garden trees do not include a plaque or any signage.
