Birch-light beauty of Russian forests. Its trunks are white in the forest, giving people joy, peace and hope. From time immemorial, people come to her for advice and comfort. Birch is the pride and symbol of the Slavs. It is often called the tree of life.
Birch for a reason is considered a sacred tree, a spiritual symbol. Since ancient times, it takes care of the person. Leaves-for health, branches-for brooms, bark for writing, crafts, tar and fire, wood for heat.
