Wildflowers
At the beginning of July it is good to go on a summer hike in the hills along the banks of the river and take photos of wildflowers


The Dubna River in these parts has incredibly beautiful hilly banks.

Yellow egg pods are dozing on the river surface.

On the left bank of the Dubna River there is a spruce forest like an enchanted castle.

We need to somehow cross to the opposite bank of the Dubna River.

This is a great place. A strong current and rocks protruding from the water indicate the location of a ford.

We put the belongings in a hermetic bag.

We put on neoprene socks so as not to injure our feet on the stones, and we wander down the Dubna River, looking for a flat place on the opposite bank.

We climb out to the shore. There is an evil stinging nettle standing like a 2-meter wall.

There is nowhere to go. Let's go straight.

The thickets are like a jungle. So to speak, modest.

And when we got out into the open space, it was so good! The Dubna River makes bends.

Waist-deep, and sometimes shoulder-deep, we walk through tall grass and floodplain meadows to the village of Vaulino.

In the depths of my soul, some peasant gene yearns: how many cows could be grazed, how much hay could be prepared.

And the places around are beautiful, wonderfully beautiful. Maybe, . Clouds rise above the hills like snow-white mountains.

He climbed the hill and turned back to look at the valley of the Dubna River. Here they are, meadows, wild flowers.

Other wildflowers include oregano or forest mint. It has a special, fragrant smell.

Another masterpiece of wildflowers. In the center are pink marshmallow flowers.

Among the white clover, the lilac-blue petals of forest geranium look exquisite.

And you, brother poppy, how did you get involved in this company of Central Russian wildflowers?

On the village street of Vaulino, for some reason, a hiker was mistaken for a wealthy landowner-esquire. The foreman of the Armenian construction team, Dima, began to persuade him to build a house.

The firewood is lying around. In winter, heat the house and bathhouse.

There is a large reservoir on the western border of the village of Vaulino.

Here the tourists from Dmitrievsk packed their things into sealed bags and swam to the other side. Daredevils!

And land tourists went on foot to Trekhselishche.

We walk and admire the wildflowers.

Luxurious bouquet of wildflowers. Only it doesn’t stand in a vase, but grows in a field.

Interesting varieties of cornflowers.

Meadow cornflower.

Three-veined cornflower.

What catches the eye in these wildflowers is the yellow candles of black mullein.

The yellow and white tongues of the sweet clover blaze in the wind.

The angelica tree opened its white umbrellas.

I'm walking along the road. Cars with summer residents rush past. An old Ford truck loaded with boards is catching up. The driver is apparently a farmer.
- How far are you going? Sit down, I'll give you a ride!
Thank you, kind man. But I have to walk.

Views all around from the hills. Dali. It's like flying on an airplane.

From Trekhselishchi we head to Malye Dubravy.

The name justifies itself, there are oak trees growing all around.

Here among the wildflowers is a precious find, a blooming rosehip.

From Malye Dubrava we go along a forest road to the final destination of our summer hike - to the village of Zapolskoye.

More often than not, even the GPS signal is lost.

In the forest twilight, a young fireweed plays bunnies with the sun.

In Zapolskoe, local residents sell mushrooms and chanterelles.

The rain began to drizzle. Young entrepreneurs rushed to cover the furniture they had made and put up for sale.

And then the Dmitrievsk tourists showed up. Cheerful, cheerful.

Only the four-legged tourist was very tired. He came to a stop and collapsed on the asphalt. The fact that the dog is alive is evidenced by its rising and falling belly in time with its breathing.

Sergiev Posad greeted us with a bright and festive atmosphere. It celebrates the 700th anniversary of St. Sergius of Radonezh.

Wildflowers- this is its own special type of flowers, easy to care for. They do not cause everyone such delight as, for example, roses. But when you drive past a field dotted with poppies, daisies, cornflowers, etc., it is simply impossible to take your eyes off these simple, delicate and very beautiful wildflowers. After all, you just want to stop, get out of the car and run through this “cloud” of flowers. And the smell that comes from them makes it seem like you are in a fairy tale and forget about all your problems.
A long time ago, when people had not yet begun to improve plants, wildflowers were the best gift.

The girls wove gorgeous wreaths from these delicate flowers, and the good fellows collected bouquets of buttercups and daisies and gave them to the red-haired girls. There is some kind of historical romance in these flowers. After all, sometimes a nice little bouquet of cornflowers will make you feel much more than an armful of roses.

And how many daisies helped the girls in fortune-telling “likes or dislikes.” How sincerely children rejoice when they collect fading dandelions, sending millions of white little paratroopers into the wind.

Beauty is beauty, and how many medicinal plants are there among the wildflowers? Vivid representatives of this species: chamomile, bluebell, dog violet and many, many others.
Name of wildflowers a very large number, according to scientists, there are about five hundred thousand species, but only 290 of them are described.

Nowadays, it is very fashionable and practical to grow wildflowers in our garden beds.

  • Firstly, they combine perfectly, and even add zest, with decorative flowers.
  • And secondly, they practically do not require any care; they are accustomed to any natural elements.

The magic of wildflowers

Take, for example, the most common and most beautiful wildflower - cornflower. Cornflower is a symbol of holiness, purity, friendliness and politeness, boyish beauty and goodness. Cornflowers are a fragrant medicinal herb with blue flowers and a strong, persistent odor. When peasants bred them near their homes. Cornflowers had a wide ritual use - they were placed behind icons, decorated crosses in churches, blessed on Macovei (August 1), on the Savior (August 6). On Trinity Day, ritual wreaths were woven from cornflowers. According to ethnographers, the sacralization of this plant is associated with legends about the discovery of the Holy Cross. In the place where the Jews hid the cross of the Savior, a fragrant and healing herb grew, which in Ukraine was called “cornflowers”.

According to another legend, the plant received its name from St. Basil the Great, who allegedly loved flowers and greenery during his lifetime and always decorated his home with them. Wreaths of blessed cornflowers were placed on the heads of dead girls, and flowers were also placed in the coffin. Cornflowers were sometimes an attribute of wedding rituals; they were sprinkled on the newlyweds, and they were used to make a font for children in case of illness. They also symbolize the holiness, purity, and beauty of the beloved.

Meadow plants are a fairly rich community, developing more dynamically than mountain or steppe ones. Meadow flowers and grasses compete for light, nutrients, and water, and therefore grow much more actively than their forest counterparts, as well as representatives of the mountains and steppes. Meadow plants include thousands of species, and most of them can be grown in your garden plots.

You can find photos and names of meadow flowers and grasses, as well as descriptions of meadow plants on this page.
