"select" burial plot (+ description)
i.e. burial plot with a renewable lease
This seems to be a term not used in US / Canadian system. This Canadian link uses "select" burial plot, with a description. This could be what you are looking for.
“Select” adult graves, which are often used as family plots, can be extended for additional terms. Upon termination of the lease, the grave is leveled or, in the case of a “select” plot, renewed for a fee at the request of the next-of-kin.

choice grave plot
Actually the same as Erdwahlgrab. Grabstätte is a longer word for Grab.
Only means you can pick the grave plot you want to be buried in.
