Agrimonia eupatoria

Field Notes
Habitat:
Found in an open meadow, relatively close to a forest, first 3 pictures were in a shadowy area, last 3 are few feet away on a sunny spot.
Notes:
"The 9th-century text Bald's Leechbook advised the use of Agrimony as a cure for male impotence - saying it should be boiled in milk, and that it could excite a man who was "insufficiently virile"; it also states that when boiled in Welsh beer it would have the opposite effect.[3]
A. gryposepala, the plant's North American relative, also has traditional medical uses." - wikipedia
