Cornflower - a common weed in a rye field ... A modest bouquet of cornflowers, which is repeatedly given to survivors, mating couples and all those who want to be modestly and dignified. Rye flowers also commemorate the deceased. The image of a cornflower almost always appears on the rosy rugs of Muhu and Western Estonia, and elsewhere in the embroidery of folk costumes. The cornflower is the national flower of Estonia - a symbol of a rich life.
