My original ID of this was based on a mistake on my part. This colorful thistle is actually a noxious weed! Thanks to Anne Elliott for alerting me! I like thistles, but I've never really studied them taxonomically.
Tussilago farfara, commonly known as coltsfoot, is a plant in the daisy family Asteraceae, native to Europe and parts of western and central Asia. Tussillago farfara is a perennial herbaceous plant that spreads by seeds and rhizomes. Tussilago is often found in colonies of dozens of plants. The flowers, which superficially resemble dandelions, open on leafless stems in early spring before the leaves appear.
Das Orangerote Habichtskraut ist in den Gebirgen Mitteleuropas, Südeuropas und Nordeuropas in Höhen von 1100 bis 3000 Meter heimisch. In den Allgäuer Alpen steigt die Art an den Seeköpfen gegen das Laufbacher Eck in Bayern bis zu 2000 Meter Meereshöhe auf. In anderen Gebieten Mitteleuropas sowie in Nordamerika und den südöstlichen Teil Australiens ist die Art verwildert.
Diese Pflanzenart bevorzugt leicht saure, nährstoffarme Magerrasen, Zwergstrauchheiden oder Weiden, ist kultiviert auch in Steingärten zu finden. /
The orange-red hawkweed is native to the mountains of Central Europe, Southern Europe and Northern Europe at altitudes of 1100 to 3000 metres. In the Allgäu Alps, the species climbs up to 2000 metres above sea level on the Seeköpfe towards the Laufbacher Eck in Bavaria. In other areas of Central Europe as well as in North America and the south-eastern part of Australia, the species has gone wild.
This plant species prefers slightly acidic, nutrient-poor nutrient-poor grasslands, dwarf shrub heaths or pastures, and can also be found cultivated in rock gardens.

Dahlia is a genus of bushy, tuberous, herbaceous perennial plants native to Mexico. A member of the Asteraceae (or Compositae), dicotyledonous plants, related species include the sunflower, daisy, chrysanthemum, and zinnia. There are 42 species of dahlia, with hybrids commonly grown as garden plants. Flower forms are variable, with one head per stem; these can be as small as 5 cm (2 in) diameter or up to 30 cm (1 ft) ("dinner plate"). This great variety results from dahlias being octoploids—that is, they have eight sets of homologous chromosomes, whereas most plants have only two. In addition, dahlias also contain many transposons—genetic pieces that move from place to place upon an allele—which contributes to their manifesting such great diversity.
Dahlia
The stems are leafy, ranging in height from as low as 30 cm (12 in) to more than 1.8–2.4 m (6–8 ft). The majority of species do not produce scented flowers or cultivars. Like most plants that do not attract pollinating insects through scent, they are brightly colored, displaying most hues, with the exception of blue.
The dahlia was declared the national flower of Mexico in 1963. The tubers were grown as a food crop by the Aztecs, but this use largely died out after the Spanish Conquest. Attempts to introduce the tubers as a food crop in Europe were unsuccessful.
