Plants can not only beautify the environment, but also symbolize vigorous vitality, so many people are willing to plant some plants in the courtyard of their villas. But what kind of plants should be planted in the courtyard of villas and how should they be planted? Next, I will bring you the knowledge of Feng Shui about planting plants in villas and courtyards.
1. Feng Shui advocates reasonable close planting on the number of trees planted. It believes that: when the surrounding area is large and narrow, you should not plant more trees, otherwise it will help its shade; Only those who are sparse at the left and right behind are densely planted to block their emptiness. We agree with this view, but some of the following arguments are too superstitious, and we can abandon them: "A single tree is the door, and a widowed mother and an orphaned grandson", "A door facing the forest is full of sudden illness and more fierce", "Two trees in front of the door, and the animals hurt people more", "Left tree without right, less good luck and more fierce", "Left tree with three or five, and husband and wife are mutually resistant", and "Two trees are sandwiched in a house, and you are bound to lose your life. Second, the ancient geomantic classics have some conclusions about the planting orientation: "Peach poplars are planted in the east, plum dates are planted in the south, elms are planted in the west, and plums are planted in the north", "It is not auspicious to hang willow in front of the door", "There are Sophora japonica in the middle door, and Fu Shan III in the middle door", "There are elms behind the house, and ghosts are not close", "Double dates are planted in front of the door, and bamboo trees are green around it to make money. From the above conclusions, combined with modern scientific knowledge, we think that some conclusions contain natural scientific knowledge, while others are a psychological need to avoid misfortune. For example, peach trees are planted in the east because the east first welcomes the sunrise, willow sprouts earlier, and peach blossoms are one of the earliest plants that bloom in spring, so it is reasonable to plant them in the east, and elm trees are wet plants, so it is appropriate to plant them in the west when the sun is not afraid. 3. Selection of Plant Colors There are few discussions on plant colors in classical geomantic books, only a few words, such as "Red flowers on the right tree, charming family" and "White flowers on the right tree, scattered descendants". I am afraid that the red flowers on the right tree are related to "Peach Blossom", which is in line with the theory that the pond should not be located on the right, otherwise there will be obscenity. "White flowers on the right tree" is related to the custom that people mourn the dead with white flowers, so it is judged that "children and grandchildren will be scattered". We think this kind of judgment is nonsense, otherwise the flawless Magnolia grandiflora planted in front of the house will make a big mistake? Although the ancient geomantic theory did not specifically and excessively discuss what color plants to plant, and different colors represented different elements.
IV. About the size of trees, it is more appropriate to plant large trees in the courtyard. Different schools of Feng Shui have different requirements. In Feng Shui, the formal school believes that to block the suffocation around the house, it is appropriate to plant large trees in rows. In order to meet the needs of the situation, trees and flowers can be used to create a pattern of "left green dragon, left white tiger, former suzaku and back Xuanwu" when the house is built on the plain or in a relatively wide area, that is, big trees are planted at the back of the house, medium trees are planted on the left and right sides, and low shrubs or grass are planted in front. This way is understandable from an aesthetic point of view, and it meets people's psychological needs of finding a "land of feng shui", and we can participate in the application in the design. In the theory of geomantic omen, it is believed that trees should be planted in high places, and low plants should be planted in low places. For example, the theory of "Eight Houses Traveling Year" holds that trees should be planted only when the house is blessed with natural medicine, longevity and vitality, and short trees or grass can be planted in other directions. The law of metaphysics stipulates that only the positive god can plant trees, but the direction of zero god is not suitable. Five, about the choice of tree types, it is selective to plant trees in the courtyard. According to geomantic omen, plants can be divided into two categories: bad luck and bad luck. There are two criteria for dividing the perpetrators: one is to divide them according to whether there is poisonous gas or venom, which has certain scientific basis. For example, some scholars think that cordate telosma will emit a large number of particles with a strong sense of smell at night, which has adverse effects on patients with heart disease and hypertension. The flowers of oleander are toxic, and the fragrance of flowers is easy to make people sleepy and reduce human function. Tulip flowers have soil alkali, and it is easy to fall off when exposed to hair too much. It is a fierce tree and should not be planted in the yard. The other is the shape of the tree, for example, "The tree is strange, and its name is ruined by the pain of gas", "The tree bends and hunches, and all the money is retired", and "The tree is like an ox, and it is ill in a humble abode".
Well, that's a summary of the Feng Shui knowledge I brought to you about planting plants in the villa courtyard. After reading the above five points, do you understand how to plant plants in your villa courtyard?
