RE: Colorchallenge: SundayPurple Hedgerow Thistles
We had one grow outside our backdoor last year that reached the eave!
My husband made sure to chop it down, or I did, anyway, we made sure it was down before it seeded. Kind of miss it this year. Somewhere I have a beautiful shot of a butterfly on one of the blossoms.
That sounds like an amazing photo. You'll have to find it as it sounds like a beauty with the butterfly.
I'll put it in the queue for
Saturday night.Sunday. Get my days and colors sorted out!I am hoping to get a nice bloom off of it before I get rid of it as well!
They attract the butterflies bees and spiders and other interesting critters. Great for photographs.
And I've heard they proliferate almost as fast as Kudzu. Ok maybe 50% as fast.
