Pine is an evergreen tree with a very long life, and its material is very strong, which also means that the affection between children and grandchildren will be good and the family will be prosperous. People in China regard the pine tree as a symbol of longevity, firmness and chastity, and plant it next to the cemetery, so as to wish future generations a long and healthy life.
Cypress is also a kind of tree suitable for planting, but it is evergreen all year round. If you put it in the cemetery, it is actually of great significance to the deceased, because it also symbolizes rebirth, helps the reproduction of future generations, and can also symbolize the eternal life of deceased relatives.
Generally speaking, pine and cypress are the most common tree species in front of the tomb, and most of them are planted in even numbers. The roots should be 3 meters away from the tomb, so that they will not grow into the tomb.
Pay attention to planting trees in front of the grave
In fact, planting trees in graves has nothing to do with the prosperity and wealth of people. As the saying goes, "three trees in front of the grave, the rich prosper" is only the beautiful expectation of the ancient working people, and will not directly affect family development.
Faced with the unknown, people always like to deceive themselves with beautiful expectations. There is hope for the future. Even without hope, there is no possibility of development. Like relaxing trees in front of graves. People think they are auspicious trees. If the shade just covers their part, it represents the shade and future generations, which is also a very auspicious symbol in geomantic omen. But these statements are superstitious and biased, and most of them seek psychological comfort. Don't take them seriously.
