“One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.”

BALD CYPRESS

The Faithful One. Strong, strives to be content, optimistic, wants love and affection, passionate, faithful, eager to please, and caring.

The Baldcypress tree is the classic tree of southern swamps. There, in its native habitat, it displays a peculiar habit of raising conical “knees” from its roots. The function of these growths is something of a mystery, although some believe it is a way to help the roots get oxygen. This tree dwells in swamps because it out-competes most other trees on such sites.

To the surprise of some people, the baldcypress does quite well when planted in the right soil in yards or along streets and is a beautiful specimen tree. It has been grown successfully in cities as far north as Milwaukee and on dry Texas hills.

  • Is a deciduous conifer.
  • Features short needles arranged in pairs along slender branchlets. Their coloring ranges from yellow-green in spring to soft green in summer to reddish- or orangish-brown in autumn.
  • Yields cones that appear as little globes approximately 1″ in length that contain triangular seeds and are attractive to wildlife.
  • Grows in a pyramidal shape.
  • Adapts well to wet and dry conditions.
  • Develops “cypress knees” only in wet conditions.
  • The baldcypress can be expected to grow in Hardiness Zones 4–10.
  • The baldcypress grows to a height of 50–70′ and a spread of around 25′ at maturity.
  • This tree grows at a medium rate, with height increases of 13–24″ per year.
  • Full sun is the ideal condition for this tree, meaning it should get at least six hours of direct, unfiltered sunlight each day.

Why Full Circle?

This company was born from our own experiences and needs. We truly felt that we could not be the only ones that wanted to honor the lives of our loved ones in ways that best fit their personalities. While grieving, we wanted an easy and transparent way to purchase the products and services we desired to memorialize our recently deceased. Surprisingly, this was difficult to find. Traditional funeral homes kept trying to sell us products we did not want and did not offer what we needed. Some even smirked when we were seeking services for our deceased animal companions.

We value all life and believe honoring our deceased is the ultimate final expression of love that we can offer. This is why Full Circle was created.

Full Circle is the company I needed when my best friend Bonnie passed away. I will never forget their professionalism, understanding, and passion to help me through this dark time. They gave me ideas on how to celebrate the life of Bonnie, and I finally settled on their baby tree memorial. I can now look out through my window every day and see Bonnie’s final resting place and the new baby tree she is giving life to. Thank you Full Circle.
