10/15/2023 thistle rosettes in the wild

A fingertip sized baby thistle!
Bigger thistle baby!
Another thistle rosette
They apparently overwinter this way
This rosette Iā€™m not sure if itā€™s texanum or undulatum. I havenā€™t seen any undulatum seeds up yet in my pots.
This is the same individual as to the left, showing the white closely hairy underside of the thistle leaves.
These five thistle rosettes are probably mostly or all texanum, based on that only my texanum seeds have germinated into similar size rosettes. These are all at my parentsā€™ house, where I got the seeds. Yay!

  1. Are you keeping a rosette photo journal? That would be so helpful for everyone, you could probably sell it.
