Sonchus asper, or Prickly Sowthistle, is a spring or summer annual herbaceous wildflower, with spiney leaves and yellow flowers and is often considered a weed because of its aggressive spread.
Weeds can be super interesting plants. They have such odd shapes and lines and leaves and tangles. This one has great leaves and I love the buds. Very nice capture!
@ziggy77 they are interesting. I just wish they’d stay where they wouldn’t get themselves into trouble. @bobbic thank you. @grammyn thank you for saying so Katy. @wakelys thank you Sue @tunia they’re definitely wicked looking @olivetreeann Thanks, Ann @jamibann Thank you Issi. @kjarn thanks Kathy @haskar thank you Hannah @30pics4jackiesdiamond thank you Jackie @pusspup Well, I don’t know. I’ve never had thistle salad salad, and I don’t know if this particular plant is edible. Maybe I should look into that. @bkbinthecity thanks Brian @craftymeg thanks Meg @cocokinetic Thanks, Karen.
