Searched for September Wildflowers
Like I did in August, I did in September. I went on a walk in the field to find out how many different flowers I could still find blooming in nature. Since this is the time when nature basically starts to go into sleep mode here in Estonia, my hopes were not very high to find a big variety.
I was proven quite wrong. I managed to find 10 different blooming flowers. I took some photos of all of those, so I hope you like to see flowers because here I go!
Jerusalem artichokes. Parts of this flower are actually edible, apparently similar to potatoes. Those bloomed in bigger patches.
Common yarrow. It's indeed one of the most common flowers in our fields to see. It can be used as a tea and as a medicine.
Common tansy. It can also be used as a traditional medicine and insect repellent. Mildly toxic if consumed in larger quantities.
Evening Primrose
Red Clover. Bees love it. Very common, can be made into tea, and is used in natural medicine.
St. John’s Wort. If used in a tea, it has a calming effect and can ease anxiety.
Common Ragwort. It's poisonous to livestock, and as far as I know, this field gets harvested into hay bales or silo bales. Don't know if it ends up as feed to animals.
This is a field view I was walking through.
Not sure if this qualifies as a flower or just some plant. But it was colorful...
Common Sorrel. People sometimes use young leaves in soups and salads.
Lastly, a blue flower. Harebell, often called the bluebell of the north.
This is all I was able to find on this walk in a field. I thought about doing the same in October but i happened to forget about it. Not sure if there is any point in going to another field and finding the flowers of November because I'm almost certain that there aren't any.

All are perfect scenes with perfect motifs such as nature and its own harmony.
Some are a bit blurry. The wind was strong and every flower swayed heavily😄
It’s amazing that you still found so many blooming wildflowers in September. Nature always surprises us. I enjoyed learning about each one, and it makes me want to look for wildflowers in my own area too.
You should look at what you have growing nearby. It's actually pretty interesting to learn about those flowers.
Wow that is so fun! What a beautiful evening and so fun to find so many flowers in bloom.
It's pretty fun to learn about the local flowers growing on the field!
Very beautiful flowers and plants! Nice shots!
