Temple of Bloom® Seven-Son Flower Treebute
A tribute that offers a second bloom, as red bracts follow the fragrant white flowers each fall.
The Temple of Bloom® Seven-Son Flower produces clusters of fragrant white blooms in late summer, right as most other plants are winding down, followed by striking rosy-red sepals that create the effect of a second bloom lasting weeks longer. Its deeply veined foliage, peeling tan bark, and compact form give this small tree year-round character in even a modest-sized yard.
Each Treebute is a complete memorial tree kit designed to be planted at home, a hands-on ritual that many people find grounding and healing.
The act of planting gives your hands something purposeful to do and creates meaning, forming a living connection that continues to grow.

Why You'll Love the Temple of Bloom® Seven-Son Flower
- A bloom, then an encore: fragrant white flower clusters appear in late summer, and as they fade, vivid red sepals create the effect of a second bloom lasting weeks longer.
- Multi-season character: deeply veined spring foliage, late-summer flowers, fall color, and peeling tan bark in winter give this tree something to offer in every season.
- A compact fit for smaller yards: at about half the size of the standard Seven-Son Flower, it's well-suited to spaces where a larger specimen tree wouldn't fit.
A Living Memorial That Grows With You
Finding a meaningful way to honor someone you love can feel overwhelming. A Treebute tree offers something different, a living expression of love that grows stronger each year. It gives your hands something to do and your heart something to hold.
The act of planting creates meaning. The growth creates hope. The tree creates a place to remember.

Nurturing Your Memorial Tribute
Even if you're new to planting, the Temple of Bloom® Seven-Son Flower is easy-care and drought-tolerant, rewarding patience with a late-season bloom that lasts and lasts.
-
Light: Full sun to partial shade, ideally 6 or more hours of direct sunlight for the fullest bloom.
-
Water: Water every 2 to 4 days during the first six weeks to help your tree establish, then settle into weekly watering unless rain provides enough moisture. It becomes fairly drought-tolerant once established.
-
Space: Plan for a mature size of about 6 to 10 feet tall and wide, whether grown as a multi-stemmed shrub or trained into a small tree.
Flower buds form in spring and slowly mature through summer, so avoid pruning in early summer or you may lose that season's bloom. Prune instead in late fall, early winter, or early spring if shaping is needed.
Optional: Plant with Cremation Ashes - The Treebute® Difference
For those wishing to incorporate cremation ashes, your kit includes the option to add our Treebute® organic soil blend. This specially formulated mixture creates a safe, nurturing foundation for your tree - transforming ashes into living growth.
Your tree is meaningful with or without ashes - this is simply another way to honor someone you love.
