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

LIVE OAK

Brave. Robust nature, courageous, unrelenting, independent, sensible, doesn’t like change, keeps grounded, and takes action.

Often seen magnificently draped in Spanish moss, the live oak is the iconic tree of the South. It has been called one of the most impressive North American trees and can live to be hundreds of years old.

Its exceptionally strong wood was a key lumber in early navy vessels, including the famous USS Constitution. (Yes, ‘Old Ironsides’ was really made of wood.) Today it is a tree appreciated by arborists and city foresters for its wind firmness, adaptability to various soil types and tolerance to soil compaction and salt spray.

  • Grows rapidly when young.
  • Can live for centuries.
  • Adapts to almost any type of soil.
  • Tolerates salt spray and compacted soil.
  • Works well as a street tree.
  • Has superior wind resistance.
  • Features leathery leaves that are 2–5″ long and persist to the following spring, dropping when new leaves begin to unfurl. The leaves are a glossy, dark green on top with a paler underside that is often covered with fine down.
  • Drops its leaved in the fall near the northern climates.
  • Produces green acorns, approximately ¾” in length, which turn dark brown at maturity. They can be borne singly or in clusters of up to 5.
  • Assumes a dwarf form on drier sites.
  • Grows in a rounded shape.
  • The live oak can be expected to grow in Hardiness Zones 7–10.
  • The live oak grows to a height of 40–80′ and a spread of 60–100′ at maturity.
  • This tree grows at a medium rate, with height increases of 13–24″ per year.
  • Full sun and partial shade are best for this tree, meaning it prefers a minimum of four 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.
