Empty soil under trees and shrubs looks unattractive, and weeds spreading through free areas take a lot of time and effort. Finding a solution to this problem is quite difficult, because, on the one hand, the crown of large trees and shrubs is too dense and does not provide sufficient lighting for planting a lawn, and, on the other hand, planted plants can interfere with the development of the main characters of the garden. And the more dense, dense crown trees and shrubs have, the more superficial they have. root system, the more difficult the task of decorating the place around them. But this does not mean that there is no solution to such a problem. Among garden plants there are many very beautiful and unpretentious perennials, which, with their roots, will not interfere with the development of shrubs or trees themselves, as well as a great many “light” ground covers that not only feel good in the shade, but also create favorable conditions for tree development. The main thing is to choose the right lush accompaniment for specific species and varieties of trees.
It often happens that temple rooms were painted with a rich red, bloody color, with widespread spiral motifs. Indeed, it is easy to imagine how the pilgrims entered the ritual chambers symbolically through the Mother's womb to merge with the Diva and poured into the sun through the holy place of the temples near the "head", "reborn". There is evidence that migration occurred between Malta and North Africa, Sicily, Turkey and other countries. It is believed that the first pilgrims used the sacred island in the middle of the Mediterranean as a center of mystical practices.
Not all trees "love" the neighborhood with other plants. The "peaceful" linden, apple tree, oak seem to be created so that their near-stem zone is decorated with lush plants and bright colors. These trees have a compact, not too wide and deep root system, which allows planting the most different plants, even perennials that actively use moisture and nutrients soil. In full measure, pears with cherries can also be counted among them. Under such trees that do not refuse to be adjacent to other crops in the near-trunk circle, plants are planted quite densely to create the most beautiful carpet possible, placing them on one square meter up to 12 ground cover seedlings, about 7 medium-sized or 3 large perennials.
When certain rituals lost their living purpose here, united with the energy of the Mother, with the help of the clerics, they initiated their own personal journey. It can be found that tantric sexual rituals were performed by priests who entered into ecstasy in these temples, which later spread among the yogis in Tibet and India.
How did culture develop in Malta and the worship of the Mother Goddess was such a mystery? The temples of Malta have been explored or ignored for many thousands of years and have been isolated in silence for centuries. During the long and difficult occupation of the foreign inhabitants of the Maltese island, their roofs fell inward, weeds grew among the stones, and rubbish was thrown inside. Mankind has forgotten its past, but now it is moving from its long years of sleep. Finally, people became more and more rooted, they wanted to know a beautiful story about their origin and development, and they wanted to move on to a new reality.
It is much more difficult to arrange a zone under such representatives of trees as Norway maple or birch, because their roots are located very widely and develop horizontally, close to the soil surface. Herbaceous perennials in such trees are inappropriate, and groundcovers will need help: a layer of palm-width compost should be poured on top of the loosened soil between the roots with the addition of an equal share garden soil, plant the plants, mulch them with large sawdust or bark and wait until the plants take root and spread on their own. You should start with just a few plants. Planting birch and maple trunks is not a matter of one season, and the main thing in it is to be patient and allow the plants to gradually develop on their own. Twice a year between plants should be laid out new compost and double feeding organic fertilizers, as well as provide additional watering in drought.
This is the hidden heritage that is being revealed on this particular planet of all time. Despite the established official versions, the majestic backstory is gradually receding, and more people in different parts of the world are hearing the following Maltese story.
Mother Earth is the planetary aspect of the energy of the Divine Women. He is personified in Deivia - in the creative energy of the Creator and in the life of the entire Creator. It has no form or gender; it is the simplest of energy vibrations, such as the pulse in our own physical bodies. Malta is a manifestation of Divine women on Earth. The relationship with the mother is very clear in the Maltese psyche. The buildings of the old prehistoric heritage, the new Christian era, the landscape and the natural environment of the islands of Malta are looking for motherly expressions.
But among the trees there are also plants that create a very strong shadow, in which only a few plants can take root, and they “scare away” these neighbors by releasing poisonous substances. So, hazel and chestnut in the leaves contain poisons, which, after falling off, fall into the ground and inhibit the growth of plants in the near-stem zone. Robinia is even more insidious: poisons are secreted not only by leaves, but also by roots. You cannot create a lush carpet next to these plants.
Malta is a God and Mother vibration experience that has been protected and preserved in this holy land, covered by millions of years of domination and exploitation. She is looking forward to being reactivated and reoriented to Earth. The Maltese kept in touch with the energy of the Divine Women. Throughout their history, they have moved from prehistoric Davis worship to Wicked Mary worship through their long Christian history. In ancient times, Malta was known as an island in three aspects of the Goddess of the Triumphal Moon, namely Galia, Love and Wisdom. ~ Francis Xavier Alusio.
The easiest way to fill the space around trees and shrubs is to create a green carpet under them, which will close the bare areas not only under large trees, but also under undersized shrubs without harm to themselves. They create it, of course, with the help of ground covers and shade-tolerant creeping perennials close to them with decorative leaves. In addition to the decorative effect, green spaces will suppress the spread and development of weeds, greatly simplify garden care, saving you a lot of time that is usually spent on weeding. Actually, a green carpet may not necessarily be only green: by combining plants with beautiful foliage with annuals, planted glades and patches, you can create colorful, illuminating shady places from the inside, carpets that are more reminiscent of patchwork bedspreads.
Energetic vibrations of the mother-goddess - The secret of magical Maltese traction. Among the many ancient temples in the world, Malta is visited by the people of the world as a place to reconnect with the loving beings who built these places of worship, as well as with the Mother world, to restore fertility, balance the Divine feminine and masculine aspects and activate the creative forces. The exceptionally strong energy of divine women is maintained by the island of Gozo. Often, just by standing on her foot, she feels a charming calm surrounding her safe, cozy and warm mother's womb.
When choosing plants for your green rug, pay attention to their decorative period: the longer your plants are attractive, the more stable and colorful your garden design will be. So, if ground covers are good only in the active garden season, then such evergreen beauties as hardy and unpretentious, and besides, rapidly growing ivy, periwinkle, pachysandra, waldsteinia will cover the soil not only in spring, summer or autumn, but also in winter period, without losing its appeal regardless of the season and weather, and decorative leafy stars such as hosta are so showy that the lack of winter attire is easy to forgive. The apical pachysandra pleases the eye with foliage of a juicy green color, a dense and lush carpet of carved leaves, under which no free soil is visible. But the hosta with its large heart-leaved leaves with colorful patterns fills shady places with charm and light. And even though it is more valued precisely for its decorative foliage, flowering, which lasts all summer, is also very attractive. Periwinkle - a plant, albeit simple, but so cute thanks to modest leaves and surprisingly bright flowers. It grows both in the shade and in the sun, is durable, blooms for a very long time and can easily settle even under shrubs. Fortune's euonymus with its powerful shoots will need much more space, but the bright foliage, changing yellow-green patterns to pink-green by winter, is worth it to push other crops. Shade-loving annuals - begonias, mimulyus, balsams, nasturtiums, some types of small-colored geraniums - will help to dilute the green sea of \u200b\u200bleaves and bring summer bright colors into it.
The island adds to the difficulty of leaving. The spectacular scenery and the generous hospitality offered by its locals are just the tip of the iceberg describing the beauty of this hidden gem. By the way, they say, no one leaves the island of God for his "vision". Indeed, the Great Devil is here for you from all walks of life, caring, processing, teaching the secrets of the ancestors immortal in the limestone cliffs. Here, her beauty and love resonate in your belly as you feel the core of your being invite you to come.
Of course, everyone has to wait their turn. One of the most picturesque beaches in Malta is Gain Tuffiha. This is a country that you can deal with endlessly, and every time you are surprised, you discover something new in it: Wow! Wow! When people who live here talk about this island, they say: "It's rock-rock!" And you can't argue - he really surrounds, flutters, oscillates, plays and dances rock! The energies that vibrate here, hardly, or anywhere else.
If shrubs can only be “decorated” with a blanket of ground cover and creeping plants with occasional interspersed with flowering annuals, then under the trees you can arrange a real mini-flower garden (unless, of course, we are talking about a pear, linden, oak, apple tree or cherry with a superficial root system) . The ideal combination for decorating areas under trees is a combination of perennials that are not afraid of competitors and develop well even in cramped conditions of swaying ornamental grasses and shade-loving ferns. They play on contrasts, create the effect of a motley sea and only emphasize the beauty of soloist trees.
September still has sunny and hot summers here, basking in the soft, gently floating and glamorous silhouette of the Mediterranean Sea and enjoying the breathtaking natural beauty. As the Englishman says: "Make everything!". It is difficult to find a competitor in Malta for three hundred sunny days a year in the area. You can enjoy this summer again in October! Rise up in the sun under blue skies, relax your body in the warm sea, and put on a full pile of sincere smiles! A cloud of heaven entangled with the blue sea, so that even the horizon melts into this blue.
One of best plants, able to settle in the shade, is a magnificent foxglove with its unique long inflorescences of fancy bells, a bright cuff, an imposing epimedium, a touching function. You definitely can’t call them inconspicuous “crumbs”! An original flowering rug can be made from ivy-leaved cyclamen, which produces pink flower heads at the end of summer. It will not be superfluous to the collection of shade-tolerant perennials and the imposing astilbe with its openwork filigree loose panicles or aquilegia with graceful flowers, which is rightfully considered a tramp plant. But sometimes even too bold shadow colors need to be balanced with more restrained, but no less beautiful plants. Decorative sedge, shield plant will perfectly “calm” flowering perennials and create a landscape effect in the near-trunk circle. But geraniums are best planted in a diffused shade along the edge of the crown as a kind of edging. By the way, geranium is the only plant that is suitable for creating a monocarpet of tall perennials. Its root system is so compact that you can even plant geraniums next to capricious beauties. Plant a few bushes around the trunk and in a few years you will have an amazingly hardy and colorful rug of geraniums.
Velvet air glamor, the sun gently kisses. Touching the limestone rocks to feel how they vibrate the energy of life and pray on Earth to hear you whisper: Can you hear me? Watching the sea - he quietly worries inside, and when he hits the waves and shakes, that's all. They wash you, take your thoughts to the horizon, cleanse everything and cling to your wiggle, pamper yourself, warm up. Get up and walk into the sun as it fills you with all the power of "prayer". You feel so pure and so complete!
True, the period in Malta after the summer heat and the mass of tourists drowned. A couple of days, a couple of nights of overflowing rain and moonlight bring here one of the most beautiful summers in Malta. Yes, Malta has received two springs, and one of them is starting late autumn. In the period before Christmas and New Year, Nature nourishes and drinks what the heart has been most missing - the glow of imperceptible freshness, sunlight and sea food. in winter green color especially pronounced on the island of Gozo. No wonder it is sometimes called the "green island of Malta", which is translated from in English"Maltese green island", although the real name has a different meaning.
In the shade of huge trees, you can even plant small flowering shrubs, such as low rhododendrons. They should be surrounded by only one plant, because the accumulation of motley rugs will look too flashy. To rhododendrons, for example, you can plant a clearing of Canadian deren, which will make a surprisingly elegant duet with blooming handsome men, or contrastingly dark weaving ivy.
In times of excitement, the Spanish name given to it by Gozo in Castile is "Joy". Not for nothing, Isle of Joy is a local and tourist destination. A frequent visitor, as soon as he gets on his feet, he admits that he is accepted and safe at home. The energy of the island of Gozo is almost abandoned and envelops each of the behind-the-scenes, littered to the depths with an inexplicable sense of reason.
You breathe deeply deeply, inspired by inspiration - you can breathe indefinitely - as the lungs expand enough that flight occurs. The soul flies with you from the flood of happiness. To be there, to observe, to dive, to surrender and to unite, means to dissolve in the power of Nature. The heart flickers at an invisible frequency as the vibrations of love and joy pass through all the cells of the body.

No matter how much you want to enjoy the view of flowering branches or branches with juicy fruits looking right out the window, you need to plant trees near the house correctly.
A tormented spirit can return to "normal" life again. After several windy and rainy weeks in January, Nature in Malta is celebrating a breakthrough - powerful, but sunny and warm, dull. Winter doesn't last long. Back in February, it had already declined from Malta. Strong first steps come to the New Spring. The first signs of this can be felt on the skin - the sun's rays begin to warm up again. There are days when the sun just bathes the Earth, pouring its energy on it, not mosquitoes, and the bubbles continue to prepare for the spring rush, strengthen and cleanse.
And the water in the sea is clear again, overheating. The Sun completes its journey through the twelve signs of the zodiac and enters a new stage in a new journey. A wonderful powerful time when the Earth is at its most balanced, with its two sides in perfect balance, and when the same amount of light and darkness exists as one. At the Mnajdra temple in Malta, the sunbeams that rise at the equinox pass right through the main intersection, right under the central axis, and reach the temple's most secret, deepest temple.
Trees and shrubs tend to grow and gain mass. Therefore, before planting, find out the maximum height of an adult plant and the outline of its crown, otherwise the green array may completely block your view. Also think carefully before planting wind-blown species near the house (in particular, spruce, birch and beech), and - when strong wind and hurricanes, they can pose a real threat to your home. The breed is important from the point of view of the natural lighting of the building: for example, evergreen trees create a lot of shade. The cardinal directions are significant: say, a tree planted in the east casts a shadow on the house in the morning.
This phenomenon is also observed during the Autumn Equinox. A spring visit to the northern hemisphere is supervised by local tourists at the Mnajdra Temple. Tickets must be booked six months ago to be on the lucky list. At the end of March, you can venture out with short sleeves for the day. The infinity of yellow rings is felt in the fields. A great time to admire the panorama of Malta. Mdina is the first peak of a mountain on a hill, the first capital of Malta, surrounded by a wall and filled with medieval and baroque architecture of the finest honey.
Malicious roots
The most important parameter to consider when landing large plants next to residential buildings - their root system. Roots can damage the foundation. Pulling moisture from the ground and causing subsidence of the soil, the roots sooner or later lead to the appearance of cracks on the walls and the settlement of the building. This mainly applies to shallowly buried foundations.
True treasures of museums, churches and hidden patios in cozy restaurants. "Stupid", also called the antique town, is attractive, and at night, when everything is finished, it is closed and the narrow streets are mysteriously lit and empty. How romantically they marry their labyrinths! No less charming narrow streets are located somewhere in the old capital of Malta, whose roots reach back to the Middle Ages. Probably most will agree that this is the most beautiful of the three old so-called cities.
Strolling here, day and night, with immaculate "Ale French" narrow streets, when you go to family burgers hidden in nooks and crannies, you are unlikely to be indifferent. When you explore the mill streets of Malta, be sure to pay attention to the doors of the house - they not only shine from afar, they are painted in the most different colors, are adorned with impressive castles with dolphins or lion heads, but each of them has an exceptional inscription. It turns out that in the old days, houses were marked with numbers, not numbers.
By resisting the wind, the tree creates a tension force in the roots. Pipes braided and plugged with them are also affected by this force and, in the end, break. Old asbestos-cement and clay pipes are especially susceptible to root ingrowth. Large roots can break inelastic pipes and penetrate into joints, clogging the drain.
Reading ceramic tiles put on the door, you can better understand the Maltese world. For example, in most cases houses are named after the first name of the population. "Juozas", or the Maltese word "Merha", which means "Welcome". Another widely accepted choice for a country of exceptional religiosity is to "consecrate" one's homes, acquainting them in the holy name or in memory of Mergel Mary, whose cult in Malta is especially strongly rooted.
Despite the fact that flowers of different colors are decorated with almost all year round in Malta, in winter and spring, all white fields are stretched yellow, and in summer, white white and pink purple bushes quench in every corner, they are picked up and pampered with this rare holiday, not a common gift. The Maltese are common, and those who came from where the living flower was loaded on the table - the usual routine, notices the absence of flower beds. The reason is rather ironic - although the Maltese archipelago is surrounded by lagoons, the water inside the islands is a luxury.
How to fix the situation?
If the situation is at an impasse, the pipes of communications and drainage will have to be changed, but the foundation can be saved. Deepen two sheets of aceid along the wall by 1-1.5 meters in the root system zone and get a "slip zone" that will make the foundation and the tree independent of each other. If you cut down a plant, it will be fraught with consequences, especially if the tree is old. The land that has settled over the years, as it absorbs moisture, which was previously taken by the root system, will begin to swell and the soil will swell. This, in turn, will cause stress in the foundation, which will again lead to the appearance of cracks in it.
The best way to avoid trouble is to prevent it. When planting, keep a distance: from the outer walls of the building, the tree should be no closer than 5 meters, shrubs - 1.5-2 meters. From underground networks (gas, water supply, sewerage) to landing pits, there should be at least 2 and 1-1.5 meters, respectively.
Specify the shape and features of the development of the root system of the plant. So, in trees and shrubs with a rod system, one or more main roots go very deep into the ground, and this makes them the first "enemies" of communications. These include Scotch pine, some types of pear, hawthorn, ash and mountain ash.
In plants with a fibrous system, the roots spread less deeply, but they grow in breadth, that is, they cover more space to damage the foundation. In addition, among this group there are many hardwoods (birch, maple, linden, alder, apple tree), which, when planted closer than the recommended distance, can clog drains with leaves.
The tap root system is a threat not only to the foundation, but also to the paths laid along the walls of the house, since such roots can grow into their sand and gravel base and lift the tiles.
This can be expected from most species of spruce and willow, Canadian shadberry, silver maple, Chinese poplar, bird cherry and western arborvitae. Tui secrete weak organic acids into the soil through the roots, which over time can also contribute to damage to the foundation. To delay the period of such exposure, take care of good waterproofing.
A common formula says that the shape and size of the root system is a mirror image of the crown. In other words, a columnar crown implies a taproot, a spherical crown implies a fibrous and superficial system. However, this formula is not universal. There are plants with a mixed root system, for example, Norway maple. Sometimes the roots occupy a smaller area than the outline of the crown (felt cherry), or several times the latter (adult walnut). With spreading branches, the root system can be pivotal (pedunculate oak), and with a columnar crown, it can be superficial (some varieties of common spruce). Moreover, the root system can change over time: for example, in a young Robinia it is fibrous, and in a mature one it is superficial.
So, be guided by an individual approach when choosing a tree or shrub. Including create favorable conditions for the plant - first of all, the type of soil and illumination. And if you want to completely secure the foundation and communications, place tubs with miniature trees and shrubs near the walls of the house.
