The scientific name of the plant is Trifolium pratense. The leaves of the plant are alternate and has three leaflets. The leaves of the plant have a very unique feature. On the leaves there is a pale crescent in the inner half of the leaf. This feature takes the shape of the plant. The leaves are not narrow, but slightly wide. I think the leaves grow smooth and appears to have a pointy edge but is actually just curved. There are multiple flowers which grow on the stem. The flowers grow in the form of a cluster.

Also known as butter and eggs or by the scientific name, Linares vulgaris. Based on my observation the plant has alternate leaves. There are at least two petals on opposite ends of the flower head. The petals fold in closely leaving a small opening at the top. The petals share a white, creamish color. Inside the plant is the stigma that has a yellow/ orangish color. It looks similar to an egg yolk. The position and color of the petals and stigma are what gives the plant it's unique nickname, butter and eggs.

Also known by its scientific name, Silene alba. Based on my observation, it doesn't appear that the flower has fully bloomed yet. Instead the petals of the flower are sticking out of a pouch like part from the stem of the plant. I assume that the pouch might be used as a form of defense or protective part of the plant. There are about 7 petals with curved edges. The pouch of the plant is either light green, others seemed to be more of a light purplish color. The leaves on the plant were side by side on the stem, they didn't seem to be alternate leaves.

I think this is the Mugwort plant. Also known by the scientific name, Artemisia vulgaris. I noticed that the stem of plant will grow straight but towards where the leaves grow there is a slight curve, causing something that looks like a fold in the middle. I assume that this is to help with a better formation of the plant leaves. The leaves of have jagged edges all around and look similiar to feathers. There didn't seem to be a specific position of the leaves, some stems would have up to three leaves growing on it. While another may have only one leaf growing on it.

This plant is also known by its scientific name, Aster pilossus. The flower doesn't seem as if it grows closely to the grouhd. Instead it grows on the stem of the plant that are long and branch out. The flowers grow in bulks, meaning there a numerous flowers alongside one stem. The middle of the flower is a bright yellow. The stigma of the flower head seems to poke out a bit, instead of being completely flat. Alongside it are straight petals which are curved at the end. They don't have sharp edges. The petals appear to grow with some distance between them, they aren't closely positioned. There could possibly be about 15 petals on each flower head.

It's scientific name is Oenothera biennis. The evening primrose contains numerous pods alongside the stem. Each pod contains thousands of seeds. The flowers on the stem appear to have alternate leaves. Each primrose had at least one or two flowers which have blossomed. The other flowers on the stem have not blossomed yet. The flower is a bright yellow with four wide short petals. The petals are curved and somewhat heart shaped. There does appear to be something growing in the middle of the flower, I'm not exactly sure what it is.

The scientific name of the plant is Cichorium intybus. The petals of the flower appear to be similar to the common hawkweed. The petals are thin ribbon like and have jagged edges also. When looked closely it has some fuzzy aspects on the petals. There doesn't seem to be a stigma in the plants. I think the middle of the plants consists of anthers. Which makes it a male flower.
