  Marsh woundwort      
 
It is a common plant species in Estonia, belonging to the labiates. It prefers rather humid ground: sloping banks of water bodies, and wet meadows. The flowering period mostly ends at the beginning of September. But these late flowerers are important for our insects, the nectar can be stored for winter supplies.
