Photo taken yesterday Thursday March 26. I quote from the date that seems rather a Christmas photo.
This is a flowering tree whose detailed characteristics:
Family: Pinaceae
Common name: Abeto of Masjid
Place of Origin: Hybrid whose parents might be A. alba x A. pinsapo.
Etymology: Abies, classical Latin name of fir. Masjoani devoted to farm Masjid, where he discovered the hybrid.
Description: Your home is at the farm Masjid, situated in Espinelves in the center of the massif of Montseny, a farmhouse over 300 years old. In the middle of last century Joan Masferrer Barnils i made the first planting to establish a nursery and made a number of fir trees. His great-Masferrer Jesus made the discovery of a copy which was neither nor pinabete pinsapo and gave him the name masjoani. Of needles have rounded or notched apex, arranged in brush, 15-20 mm in length. Widely used as ornamental.
Photo is a copy of this tree which is in the tennis club I belong to, located in the Montseny munifcipal Riells about 3 kms from my village Breda (Catalunya-Spain) |
