I love these guys, and they look especially nice in the late afternoon. They were a big hit with both bees and spiders. Put out a baby plant this year that will find another place in the garden this Fall.

Too much of a good thing!

Nice photograph....and they ARE pretty and easy plants to grow. Do you have a whole patch of them? I have to make sure I remember to cut mine down before the seeds start to fall (any day now). I'm always pulling and re-pulling the volunteers from those times I didn't. Long tap roots make these stubborn things to get out once the seed hits the ground. So it's not such a favourite with me anymore.

Gorgeous Glob Thistle !

What a beautiful picture of the Globe Thistle ! I love the light and shade values .. makes it even better .. I hope my patch will grow to look as good as that !
Well Done !
