Reseeda (Reseeda)
Mignonette, reseda, Reseda spp., formerly used as a yellow dye. Interesting street: existed on paper (only?) from 1958-06-13 to 2010-02-10.
Raunjala (Raunjalg)
Lit. (at) the foot of a heap of stones. One of the Asplenium family, a fern better known as spleenwort and used to treat, yes, the spleen, but also believed to cause infertility in women. Three species common in Estonia:
- Pruun raunjalg, maidenhair (lit. brown) spleenwort, Asplenium trichomanes
- Müür-raunjalg, wall-rue (unrelated to actual rues), A. ruta-muraria
- Põhja-raunjalg, northern or forked spleenwort, A. septentrionale
Street-name short-listed some years ago along with Kilpjala for Käokõrva, but failed to make the grade, and revived (on paper, only?) in 2023.
