memorial wreath

Tribute of flowers

A memorial wreath is a circular arrangement of flowers, leaves, or branches placed at graves, monuments, or sites of remembrance to honor the dead.

The circular shape traditionally symbolizes eternity.

Memorial wreaths appear at funerals, on holidays like Memorial Day, and at locations where someone died: They laid a memorial wreath at the war memorial.
