Q: Can this be easily put into the ground?

these flowers were not intended to be put into the ground.

Q: What is the minimum thickness on the top of the headstone that the saddle will fit?

I dont really have a good answer to your question but I can tell you that you can adjust the the legs (sides that hold it in place).They have some flexibility.

Q: How do these flowers hold up to the weather? Do the colors remain vibrant?

The flowers are designed for outdoor use, we perform our own in-house testing in Atlanta, GA. on each product line we have. Typically the darker the colors the quicker the UV exposure will fade them. The dyes used to color the material have some UV resistant properties. Over the summer, we see an average of 75 days with good color. The beauty color is one of the better colors and will last longer than average.

Q: How are the flowers attached to the saddle? Do they sit in styrofoarm or some type of oasis? Are they just stuck in or glued on? Worried about wind.

I have just taken min off of my mother's grave after a year and a half. I am not sure how they exactly stuck the flowers in there, however, I can tell you that not one flower was missing. My mother is in a very flat and extremely windy cemetery. Wind was not a problem with this arrangement. Every flower and garnish piece stayed on!Hope this helped.
