The colors on the Thistle Plant

The stem is edible and is quite nice in salad, a mild celery type. It grows wild in pastures, ditches, along the roadside....but, it must be picked before it makes these flowers.

I think you'd need a good strong pair of gloves Coleen! v

Very pretty, too bad you can't eat it now. Choices, salad or flowers!
