Thistle
No one will be chopping down my prize thistle this year! After three years of cultivation and protection, it is tall and ready to bloom. It looks like there will be many smaller blooms, too.
I plan to let it bloom, let the bees and birds have at it, then chop off the blooms so as not to overly torture the neighbours. I may plant the seeds, mind you. ;)
