      They are unique but they are old thistles.

      The petals at the base are super tough and the whole thing is prickly. I mean yeah it’s all perspectives but I’ll take a soft flower any day.

          LOL that checks out.
          But, It sounds like you don’t have a neighbors yard growing full of them spreading everywhere.

            I used to have them in my own yard. My newer place doesn’t have any and I wish I did!

                  (⁠☞⁠ ⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠☞ Sure.

                  But maybe keep your “non-spreading” thistle to yourself if you can.

                    If you think I’m crazy, you should know that some people even make tea out of thistle.
