Description
Watercolour of purple garden thistles.
Many denigrate thistles as weeds but thistles are beautiful and dramatic, and every garden should have them I rather like their prickly purple beauty. Luckily there are some garden-friendly varieties -the secret is to choose your thistles with care.
Legend has it that the thorny thistle once saved Scotland from a marauding Norse army, a feat that earned this tenacious plant its status as a Scottish national symbol
