Choose In Honor Of or In Celebration Of, write the couple's names, and add a line such as "Fifty years of roots and branches. Happy anniversary." The certificate is emailed within minutes, so order on the morning of the day. One tree is $18; a family can give a grove of several trees together.
Why a tree suits an anniversary
A marriage, like a tree, is something that is grown. For parents or grandparents who want nothing more in the house, a tree in Israel in their honor is a gift they will actually value.
Ideas by milestone
- One tree on each anniversary, so a small grove grows with the marriage.
- A grove of several trees for a milestone year.
- One tree from each grandchild, signed together.
- A tree for each other, for a couple who would rather give than get.
What to write
- *Fifty years of roots and branches. Happy anniversary.*
- *For Mom and Dad, whose love planted all of us.*
- *To many more years of growing together.*
