I love teazels and used to use them often in floral arrangements when I lived in the UK. Don't see them here though.

@365projectorgheatherb Thank you Heather for your great comment and Fav as always its appreciated, they are very sharpe indeed, that is why they were used in woollen cloth manufacture for raising the nap whilst the woven wool was wet, a process dating back to the 12th centry in England:)

@louannwarren Thank you Lou Ann for your comment they can grow to 2m tall and are found in damp grassland, field edges, disturbed ground, roadside verges and waste grounds, they are visited by bees when flowering and birds when seeding, they are very common and plentyful in the countryside:)
