  • Yarrow. Tver region

    The Tver region is a land of dense forests, gentle rivers, quiet lakes, and lush meadows. Many meadow herbs are medicinal plants, such as common yarrow. Yarrow is still actively used in folk medicine today. It is taken internally as a remedy for regulating metabolism, dizziness, nausea, headaches, and sleep disorders.


    Yarrow is a large genus of the Asteraceae family, comprising about 150 species. The common yarrow, or woundwort (Latin: Achillea millefolium), is the type species of the yarrow genus. The genus name derives from Achilles, the mythical hero who used yarrow to heal wounds. The species epithet (mille - thousand, folium - leaf) refers to the plant's numerous leaf segments. The plant is widespread in Europe and Asia and has been introduced to other continents. In cultivation, yarrow is grown as an ornamental, medicinal, and aromatic plant.

  • Ivan Chai. Novgorod region

    Ivan Chai (botanical name — Chamerion angustifolium, also known as Ivan-Tea, fireweed, rosebay willowherb) is a perennial and fast-growing herbaceous plant widespread in many regions of the Northern Hemisphere. Ivan Chai grows in the Novgorod region, where it is collected in the pristine and protected forests of the region.

     


    Ivan Chai has a dense rhizome and a straight stem that reaches up to two meters in height, narrow wedge-shaped leaves, and pinkish-purple inflorescences. In summer, it can be found not only in the forest but also in gardens, as it easily adapts to both shade and open sunlight.

    People have valued this plant since ancient times. The gathering of this medicinal herb takes place from mid-June to mid-July during the flowering period. In August-September, the inflorescences are covered with fluff, thin white hairs of seeds that emerge from the mature, pod-like fruits. All parts of the herb, from the flowers to the roots, are considered medicinal.

  • Fernleaf peony. Ulyanovsk region

    The fernleaf peony (Paeonia tenuifolia) is an incredibly beautiful and rare wildflower listed in the Red Data Book. It is recognizable by its large, bright red and dark purple flowers and its needle-like, lacy leaves. The peony is one of the symbols of the Ulyanovsk region and is depicted on the flag of the Radishchevsky urban settlement.


    It is believed that the fernleaf peony is the very "scarlet flower" that the youngest daughter asked the merchant for in the eponymous fairy tale. Several facts support this version: the Aksakov family estate was located in the Simbirsk region (now the village of Aksakovo, Mainsky district, Ulyanovsk region), and Sergei Timofeyevich drew most of the plots for his works from his life. According to Aksakov, he first heard the plot of the "Scarlet Flower" from the housekeeper Pelageya, a local resident.
