  • Feather grass. Orenburg region

    The blooming of feather grass is an event of unique beauty in the Orenburg region, one that leaves a lasting impression. Feather grass is a genus of perennial monocotyledonous herbaceous plants from the family Poaceae, or true grasses. It is one of the most common plants in the steppes.


    In Latin and Greek, feather grass is known as Stipa, a name closely related to the Russian word for "steppe." Feather grass thrives in dry soil, growing in steppe meadows, open hills, rocks, and stony outcrops. There are about 80 species of feather grass in Russia, and around 300 species worldwide.

  • Anemone hepatica. Nizhny Novgorod region

    Anemone hepatica (Hepatica nobilis) is an herbaceous perennial plant, 5-15 cm tall, with solitary, upright flowers of bluish-purple color. In their young state, the leaves of the hepatica are covered with dense, soft, silky hairs, which they lose later.


    The plant belongs to the buttercup family. It blooms in April-May and bears fruit in June (the fruits are nuts up to 5 mm long). It reproduces mainly by seeds.



    Anemone hepatica is listed in the Red Data Book of the Nizhny Novgorod region. It can be found in the "Voskresenskoye Povetluzhye" natural park.

  • Tuberous begonia. Tula region

    Begonia is a very elegant plant, in which literally everything is beautiful: both flowers and leaves. The main feature of begonias is their lush flowers, which completely cover the plant. The plant is characterized by an incredible variety of flower forms - they can be similar in structure to peony, narcissus, carnation or camellia. 



    Begonia is a genus of plants in the Begoniaceae family. It is a low herbaceous perennial plant with a rhizome in the form of a bowl-shaped tuber.

    The first artificial hybrids were obtained in 1870, and subsequently at least seven species were used for crossbreeding. As a result of this painstaking work, more than 200 varieties of this perennial plant were born.

    This flower is classified into trailing, herbaceous, and shrub varieties. However, the most important distinguishing feature is the presence of a developed root, which is formed in the shape of a massive tuber, reaching up to 6-7 centimeters in diameter.

  • Heather. Pskov Region

    Heather (Calluna) is a genus of plants in the heather family. The only species is common heather (Calluna vulgaris). It is an evergreen, highly branched shrub about 30–50 cm tall with thin surface roots. Heather is easily recognized by its pinkish-purple flowers, which are gathered in one-sided racemose inflorescences at the ends of the shoots.


    Heather is widespread in the forest zone of Eurasia, in northwestern Africa, and in the eastern regions of North America; in Russia, it is found in the European part and in Western Siberia. In the second half of summer, in the pine forests and raised bogs of the Pskov region, one can encounter shrubs covered with delicate light pink flowers, resembling tiny bells in shape. This is the abundant bloom of heather, a wonderful honey plant and a hero of Scandinavian mythology.

  • 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.

  • Red clover. Kirov region

    The Kirov region is classified as an area of risky agriculture. Therefore, the focus in agriculture is on livestock and fodder crops. Red clover is the most widespread fodder crop in the field grasslands of the Kirov region. Since fodder fields occupy the majority of the arable land in the region, clover flowers are probably the most abundant flowers in the Kirov region.


    Red clover (Latin: Trifolium pratense) is a plant from the genus clover (Trifolium), family Fabaceae (legumes), subfamily Faboideae (Papilionoideae).

    The Latin name of the plant translates to "three-leaved," as the three leaves are one of its distinguishing features. Four-leaved clovers, which are famous for being lucky charms, are much rarer.

    Clover is of great economic importance to the region due to its high yield and nutritional and fodder value. Clover is a source of biological nitrogen accumulation in the soil. Its roots host bacteria of the genus Rhizobium, which assimilate molecular nitrogen and transfer it to the clover in exchange for carbohydrates. Additionally, clover improves soil fertility, as its deep roots extract potassium, calcium, and phosphorus from deep soil layers and leave them in the upper arable layer.
