The other side of Spring
by Len Philpot

Pineville, LA

I found this growing just outside the area I mow, off my backyard. I'll cut it down this weekend (to avoid getting all the spines in the grass), but it's pretty in its own rather intense way, I think. It's about 24 inches tall!


other sizes: small medium original auto

it is indeed a thistle--many of which are quite beautiful when blooming but they have a very LONG tuber and are hard to remove and seed like crazy--remove it before it goes to seed--they have an average of 10,000 seeds per plant--dawn, certified Master Gardener, answered all the hort lines asking "how to get rid of these things"..... oh, and should that be a problem, dig them out--every piece of the root you leave in the soil will turn into another one.

Beautiful shot with great details. Would hate to step on it in my bare feet, though!

Neat shot of a thistle. Good lighting.
