Foxglove or Fingerhut (thimble) in German. Beautiful flower with lots of uses and a legend attached to it. It is very poisonous but at the same time it’s a powerful medicine for cardiac insufficiency. The Irish have the legend that the blossoms served as hats for the fairy folk and those fairies gifted them to foxes as gloves (hence the name) so they could more easily sneak into the chicken coop.
Also Codlins and Cream or Zottiges Weidenröschen in German. This is actually a food plant for several butterfly caterpillars, so it’s very useful beside of being pretty.
This one is a Thank You to the precious handful of people who take the time every day to leave a “Like” for me. You guys make me smile every single day. Thank you! ❤
The Evening Primrose (Nachtkerze in German) actually originates in the USA. In the 17th Century this plant made it’s way to Europe. Nowadays you can find it all over the place. So thank you America for this beautiful flower.
