Is it good to grow an apricot tree at home? You'll understand after reading this

SummaryIt is not suitable to grow apricot trees at home, as it will affect the family's fortune and the relationship between husband and wife. Since ancient times, there has been a saying about planting apricot trees that "when the tree thrives, the people do not." In feng shui, it is said: do not plant apricots in the east, do not plant peaches in the west, do not plant mulberries in front, do not plant willows behind, and do not plant poplars in the middle. Also, the area around the courtyard is not suitable for planting too many large trees; too much shade leads to insufficient sunlight, which affects people's health.

There is a proverb in rural areas: “Peaches nourish people, apricots harm people, and under a plum tree lies a dead man.” This means that neither apricot trees nor plum trees are suitable for planting at home. In feng shui, it is said: do not plant apricots in the east, do not plant peaches in the west, do not plant mulberries in front, do not plant willows behind, and do not plant poplars in the middle. Apricot trees, like peach trees, first bloom, then grow leaves, and then bear fruit. Apricot blossoms carry the saying of a "peach blossom misfortune," and it is even worse if the flowers that bloom are white, implying that when the tree thrives, the people do not.

Lowering the family's fortune

Apricot trees bear apricots, which can both be eaten and treat some digestive diseases. Many people like to plant a few apricot trees in their courtyard, but since ancient times there has been a saying that when there is an apricot tree in the courtyard, the tree thrives but the people do not. So if the apricot tree in the courtyard grows very well, it will lead to a decline in the family's wealth.

Affecting the relationship between husband and wife

When apricot trees bloom, they are richly fragrant, and the scenery is also very pleasing to the eye. After the apricot blossoms fade, the apricots can still be picked. Therefore, many people like to plant apricot trees in their courtyard. But there is an old saying about "red apricots reaching over the wall," so planting apricot trees in the courtyard can easily lead to a poor relationship between husband and wife, causing the wife to have an affair.

The growth of trees, flowers, and plants all depends on water. Places with lush and dense trees are certainly less dry than flat ground and are relatively more humid, and places with dense trees are even better habitats for snakes and insects. Living within a forested area for a long time makes it easy to contract diseases. Therefore, too many large trees should not be planted around a residence; excessive shade leads to insufficient sunlight, thereby affecting people's health.
