  • Spring pheasant's eye (adonis). Kursk region

    Spring pheasant's eye, or adonis (Adōnis vernālis), is a perennial herbaceous plant. The large golden spheres of the pheasant's eye scattered across the carpet of young greenery adorn the untouched Streletskaya Steppe in the south of the Kursk region every spring. Some plants can bloom with up to 70 flowers, which only open in sunny weather.


    You can admire adonis only in the wild — this beautiful ornamental and medicinal plant does not lend itself to artificial cultivation. The development of the pheasant's eye seeds occurs very slowly, over the course of ten or more years. Even brief shading can cause adonis to perish. All medicinal preparations containing spring adonis are made from wild plants, which predominantly inhabit steppe and forest-steppe areas.

  • Buckwheat. Altai region

    The Altai region is a region of thousands of lakes and untouched natural corners, rich in historical and cultural heritage, with a favorable ecology and famous branded products. One of these products is buckwheat (Latin: Fagopyrum esculentum), a species of herbaceous plants of the buckwheat genus (Fagopyrum) in the family Polygonaceae. It is both a cereal and a honey plant.


    The Altai region grows a quarter of the world's buckwheat crop. The Altai region can rightfully be called the buckwheat capital, producing up to 70% of all Russian buckwheat.


    Historically, buckwheat grew in Northern India, the Himalayas, Southern Siberia, and the Altai region. Russian archaeologists continue to find fossilized buckwheat grains in burial mounds of the Altai people and in excavated Ural camps of Asian nomads dating back to centuries before our era.

  • Wild strawberry. Ryazan region

    The main feature and pride of the Ryazan region are its forests, which occupy almost a third of the region's territory. The most common type is the pine forest, covering vast areas in the north and east of the region. These areas are incredibly rich in forest harvests: an abundance of mushrooms, valuable essential oil, medicinal and tea plants is complemented by a berry feast. Blueberries, lingonberries, raspberries, cranberries, and, of course, the beloved wild strawberries.


    Wild strawberries are valued for their tasty berries and healing properties. The Latin name "fragare" translates to "fragrance." The berries of wild strawberries are indeed very aromatic, juicy, tasty, and sweet.


    Wild strawberries also benefit those seeking rejuvenating effects: the essential oil of the berries has anti-inflammatory, calming, and rejuvenating properties.

  • Veronica. Moscow

    Veronica (or speedwell) is a floral symbol of Moscow. The name of the flower comes from the Latin words vera unica — "real medicine".


    Veronica is the largest genus of flowering plants of the plantain family, a forest-steppe species. All wild species of Veronica have a common feature — it is a blue shade of petals, the color of a clear sky on a summer day. Inflorescences are spike-shaped or panicle-shaped, consisting of many small buds. Blossoming is long, for a month and a half, falls at the height of summer. Breeders have long been interested in Veronica and have developed many decorative varieties with sky blue, navy blue, pink and white spike-shaped inflorescences.

  • Flax. Ivanovo region

    Flax is a plant that has been the mainstay of the region's economy and life since ancient times. At the beginning of the XX century, the textile industry began to develop on a large scale. Flax was grown in these lands as the main raw material for fabrics. Clothes, porridge, seeds for salads, garden plants - flax had a wide range of uses.


    Now a new stage in the industry is emerging with the use of technology and the forgotten raw material — flax. Flax growing and flax processing is a priority for the development of the agro-industrial complex of the Ivanovo region. It helps the economic cluster to resume the work of textile industries that use flax as a raw material.
