That was a tease as the picture didn't resemble the first class weed i know that should be avoided, or maybe it's been awhile :)
Pia, this is thistle is growing at my place and embedded with other weeds which make up this year's flower garden! I've always liked the color of the thistle and only recently tied 'thistledown' to those jellyfish-dandelion-parachute like seedlings that float on the late summer breeze.
Dear Sue,
I adore thistle! My butterflies also think it is a grand flower. The thorns are the problem.
Weeds, volunteers, Mother Nature's Gardens, the gardens the butterflies love.
Fantastic picture.

love the phrase "first class weed." And no, not because of a secondary meaning! I know some people I might use the term to describe.
Important message. My garden isn't listening, though ;-)
Wonderful! Both words and photo!
Practice makes pleasure profitable
That's a pretty thistle... but yes, avoiding them is best!
thistles has character, their colors are nice, so why avoid them?
wow! amazing how you can make a full story out of a few tiny words!
If my weeds looked liked that... I'd save a fortune on annuals! :))
