Meadow sages

Also called wild sage, this is the biggest plant in the mint family. They have a highly specialised pollination mechanism. When an insect inserts its proboscis into the flower to reach the nectar store, it triggers the other end of the structure to tip forward and touch the insect's back, transferring pollen and thus ensuring the plant's reproduction. It also possesses numerous medicinal properties, in particular against bronchitis, angina and flu, among other ailments.
