Funny! I hate those, because of their extremely weedy, invasive nature! One of my favorite state parks became very infested with it (and other weedy species) over the years, along the river. Of course, they didn't have enough people working there, so some trails along the river became practically unusable at certain times of year. I guess that pretty much formed my opinion of it.

Horntoad said:One of my favorite weeds is Cirsium horridulum. It's common name is Yellow Thistle, but very few are. The one in the last picture is the only one I have ever seen.

I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
