There was a problem where the water in the flower vases at the graves would run out, causing the flowers to wilt quickly. [Solution] The air inside the sealed container expands due to the rise in temperature caused by the sun, pushing out water during the day. At night, when the temperature drops, the air inside the sealed container contracts, drawing air in through the end of the pipe. This cycle is repeated once a day to automatically supply water to the flower vase.

System and for interment of cremated remains with module above-ground columbariums. Columbariums are formed from either a monolithic block of stone or individual blocks that are stacked on top of each other. Spacers may be used between adjacent blocks in the vertical stack to enable two adjacent units to be interleaved. Support rods may extend through interleaved portions to enable adjacent units to be rotated with respect to each other as well as penetrating down into a below-ground foundation to provide resistance to overturning. Modularity may be achieved at the single-block level where each block contains only one niche, minimizing the capital expenditure operators must make to increase capacity for the facility. A separate six-sided columnar columbarium unit may also be provided with faces that alternate between pairs of drilled niches and corresponding memorials. Multiple layers of this may be stacked vertically together. Water or other fluid may flow up through a channel within the vertical column, exiting the top and flowing down over the faces into a catchment basin below where it is captured and recirculated.
