Birch is a symbol of Russia. She always personified the character of a Russian person. White birch is the closest and dearest plant for our people. It is difficult to imagine Russia without this tree. Birch grows with us everywhere.
Since ancient times, the Birch was revered by the Slavs. The very word "birch" means "protect." Bereginya is a pagan deity among the ancient Slavs, who was considered the mother of all spirits, she was represented in the image of a birch. At first, birch was considered a symbol of fertility and health, and then they began to associate with the feminine and girlish beauty. So the birch became a symbol of light, purity, femininity.
White birch has always been associated with the spring church holiday - Trinity. Girls decorated the trees with ribbons, led round dances around them, wove wreaths. On holiday, houses and churches were decorated with birch branches.
Often a birch was compared with a young Russian girl. She was dedicated to her best works by poets and artists. Who doesn’t remember Yesenin’s lines: “White birch under my window”! And how to forget the "Birch Grove" by Arkhip Kuindzhi! White-birch birches covered with bright green foliage, a thick carpet of emerald grass, the sun's rays can not leave anyone indifferent.
Birch is one of the most amazing symbols of Russia! It reflects the purity of the Russian soul, the beauty and fragility of our nature, but at the same time the strong-willed character and the mighty strength of our Motherland!
