Now, place fresh flowers on graves through email

An innovative new business in France has found a perfect solution for mourners who do not like visiting cemeteries but want to keep their loved ones graves covered in flowers.

London, Nov 4 : An innovative new business in France has found a perfect solution for mourners who do not like visiting cemeteries but want to keep their loved ones' graves covered in flowers.

Intersepulture, which means between tombs, offers a service that works by placing an order over the Internet together with the co-ordinates of a grave, and then allowing the company to deliver, anything up to three times a year.

A picture is taken each time fresh flowers are placed and is delivered by email or conventional post.

"It struck me long ago that many graves are left without flowers for whatever reason, and this is the perfect solution to the problem," the Telegraph quoted Laurent Yon, the company's founder, as saying.

Intersepulture has already signed up 250 bereaved families, with many more expressing an interest in the service. The service starts from about 40 pounds.
