Another 5 plants in our garden! Inca 5 plante in gradina noastra!

Oooooo, da! Ieri suna interfonul, pe la 6, cred. "Sunt domnul cu plantele, am mai adus un pin superb, va intereseaza?" Raspuns: "sotul meu trebuie sa ajunga cam in 10-15 minute, puteti sa asteptati sau sa reveniti peste 30 minute?". "Aaaa, nu, il asteptam, nu e nicio problema!"

Ooooooo, yes! Yesterday, somebody call me on the interphone, around 6, I think. "I am the man with the plants, I brought another gorgeous pine, are you interested?" Answer: "my husband will be here in 10-15 minutes, can you wait or can you come back in 30 minutes?". "Aaaaa, no, it's ok, we'll wait for him, it's not a problem!"

Evident ca asteptau, ca doar cati clienti sunt dispusi sa investeasca niste bani inainte de Paste? Hehehe... poate doar Dani.

Of course they will wait, how many clients are willing to invest some money before Easter? Hehehe... maybe only Dani.

Concluzia? Inca 4 Thuja in gradina noastra si un pin superb! Inca nu am facut fotografii, dar daca nu reusesc astazi, sigur maine le veti vedea si pe acestea!

The conclusion? Another 4 Thuja in our garden and a gorgeous pine! I dont't have any pictures right now, but if I will not make some today, tomorrow for sure you will see them!

Ca atare, oamenii incoace si incolo, unii la cumparaturi, altii fac curatenie, unii gatesc, altii isi fac bagajele pentru mini-vacanta, nooooooi, nuuuuuu, noi plantam copaci!!!! Iupiiiiiii, cine mai e ca noi???

So, people are here and there, some to shopping, others with cleaning, some are cooking, others make the luggage for the mini-vacation, weeeeeeeeeee, noooooooo, we are planting trees!!!! Iupiiiiii, who is like us?

Dupa cum spun deseori, la noi ca la nebuni!!! Tot timpul! Dar e fun, traiesti viata la maxim si te bucuri de fiecare clipa! Voi ce ziceti?

As I say very often, we are like in a madhouse!!! All the time! But it's fun, we are living life to the maximum and enjoying every minute of it! What do you say about that?

Our new thuja! Noile noastre thuja!

Ieri dimineata ne-am marit colectia de thuja, de data aceasta cu 5 exemplare superbe, mari si frumoase.

Yesterday morning we increased our thuja collection, this time with 5 gorgeous plants, big and beautiful.

Pe acesta rotund l-am vrut in mod deosebit, pentru ca mi-a placut ideea unei plante rotunde, pentru ca era perfect pentru ghiveciul mare realizat de catre Dani (ajutat de tatal meu) si pentru ca nu am mai vazut pana acum.

This round thuja I particularly loved, because I love the idea of a round plant, because is perfect for my big wooden pot made by Dani (helped by my father), and because I didn't see a round thuja before.



Pozele le-am facut acum 10 minute, dar era o lumina foarte ciudata afara, de aceea s-ar putea sa nu va placa. Dar ideea este sa vedeti plantele, nu? :)

10 minutes ago I made the pictures, but it was a very strange light, so it's possible not to like them. But the idea is to see the plants, right? :)

Grupul celor 3! Ideea lui Dani este sa facem un "zid" de thuja, ca sa fie izolant fonic si sa tina praful la distanta de intrarea in casa.

G3 group! Dani's idea is to make a thuja "wall", to sound isolate and to keep the dust away from our main entrance.



Thuja cea mare, plantata de catre Dani langa pin, aproape de foisor. E superba si imi place foarte mult!

The big thuja, planted by Dani near the pine, close to the garden wooden tower. It's gorgeous and I love it!



Thuja a devenit o planta foarte iubita si in Romania, mai ales in parcuri si in gradinile publice, dar si in gradinile particulare. Aspectul sau decorativ si faptul ca este mereu verde ii face pe multi sa o cumpere, sa o ingrijeasca si sa o iubeasca.

Thuja became a very popular plant in Romania (and loved), planted in parks and public gardens, also in private gardens. Its decorative nature and the fact is always green makes a lot of people to buy it, to care for it and to love it.

Cea mai cunoscuta specie de thuja este Thuja occidentalis si este originara din sudul Canadei si nordul Statelor Unite. Are talie inalta (10-15 metri), cu forma piramidala. Este foarte rezistenta la temperaturile scazute, la seceta si suporta tunderea, spre deosebire de alte variante de thuja.

Thuja occidentalis is a very well-known species and it's native south Canada and north USA. It's a tall plant (10-15 m), pyramidal shape. It's resistent to low temperatures, drought and can be cut, unlike other species.

Carolus Linnaeus a descris aceasta planta in 1753, iar numele i-a ramas pana astazi. Alte nume comune: Eastern Arborvitae, American Arborvitae, Techny Arborvitae sau simplu Arborvitae.

Carolus Linnaeus described this plant in 1753 and the name remains current. Common names: Eastern Arborvitae, American Arborvitae, Techny Arborvitae, or just Arborvitae.

Thuja orientalis face parte din familia Cupressaceae si este originara din China si Japonia. Era denumita arbor vitae, adica arborele vietii de catre vechii alchimisti ai Evului Mediu. Grecii, egiptenii si chinezii il foloseau in arta terapeutica de acum 3.000 ani. Insusi regele Solomon (il stiti, cel cu judecata dreapta lui Solomon) a construit templu din Ierusalim din piatra si lemn de thuja.

Thuja orientalis is a part of Cupressaceae family and it's native China and Japan. The ancient alchemists from the Middle Ages gave it the name "arbor vitae", that means life's tree. The Greeks, the Egyptians and the Chinese used it in therapeutical art since 3.000 years ago. Solomon himself (you know him, the one with the Solomon's judgement) built the Jerusalem temple out of stone and thuja wood.

Unele femei folosesc rasina proaspata fara sa stie acest lucru. Cu ajutorul ei se fac anumite creme impotriva celulitei.

Some women use the fresh thuja pitch without knowing this. You can find it in some cellulite cream.
