Most cemeteries, not just the private ones. Upright stones are still allowed in some older parts of city cemeteries,and in old church cemeteries, but you can't rely on those old cemeteries to be taken care of. Most corporate owned or large cemeteries (I am thinking of the ones in Savannah) don't allow anything that cannot be run over with a lawn mower. It has to be flat against the ground, and if you want a coping, it has to be a ground level too.. so nobody has to break out a weedeater to keep it neat.
There is a larger and larger movement to establish family cemeteries on private land, so there aren't the restrictions to stones.. but that takes a bit of red tape paperwork, and they have to be on privately owned family land, and there is no city entity to care for them. Still, it can be done.
