| Biodegradation in Soil / Ground Burial | Degradation in soil is roughly 1 to 2 months, depending on soil type and humidity. The soil’s moisture level plays a big role. More moist, nutrient-rich soil = faster breakdown. |
| Growing a Living Memorial | The urn is designed so that the lid can be replaced so a sapling of your choice can be planted through it, turning the memorial into a living tribute. It can also be placed in a planter or buried alongside a tree to provide ongoing soil nutrition. |
