Nicole Taylor

Planted a memorial tree for her mum ashes.

“I feel like this is a new life and then being able to actually physically touch her as a tree.”

Nicole wanted to find somewhere peaceful and tranquil where she could celebrate her mum’s life in beautiful surroundings.

Sustainability was one of the most important things to her. She wanted to find a place that supported the planet and allowed her mum’s life to become part of something new.

When she found Mornington Green, it felt like the right place. She loved the idea of being able to transform her mum’s ashes into new life while also helping the planet.

For Nicole, the connection with her mum continues through the earth. When she comes to the garden and sits with her, she feels as though she can talk to her through the earth.

Being able to physically connect with her mum through the tree has made the experience even more meaningful for Nicole. The peaceful surroundings and the idea of her mum becoming part of a living tree are what made Mornington Green such a beautiful place to remember her.
