Wherever
it grows this tall stiff plant with conspicuous prickly flower-head
can hardly fail to be noticed. It has the general appearance of
a thistle, although the two plants are not in any way related.
The teasel flowers in late summer and seems never to be in full
bloom. Its small purple florets open a few at a time, in a succession
of bands round the otherwise green flower-head.
