Yeothir

Yeothir is a flower common to the western parts of the Sixlunds, especially Lathan and Calend, and down the peninsula through Hithdurya, Pelerin, and Arduin, and into southern Sen. 
Its large, golden blossoms are a common sight in those broad grasslands, opening in midsummer and enduring until the first frosts, when they fade and die. These blossoms, along with the distinctive purple leaves of the plant itself, gave Lathan its colors. The plant is a perennial, and a favorite snack of horses, who spread its seeds via their droppings. 
A tincture made of the leaves is useful for staving off colds and flus, and to treat their symptoms. The blossoms themselves can be boiled and mashed into a paste with antiseptic properties; the plant is therefore often gathered in the warmer months in order to make preparations for the winter.
