(Is that a word? Thorny?) We have quite a few of these around and I always admire them.
Wir haben einige von diesen Dornenblumen u ich bewundere sie immer.

Cool, theyre like nice and pretty on top, and mean and thorny n the bottom. lol, i dont know what I'm talking about....hehe
very pretty!
looks great, but I wouldn't want to grab it. :)
une belle fleur, dame nature fait si bien les choses
a beautiful flower, miss natural made so well the things
Acker-Kratzdistel heisst diese stachelige Pflanze.
Blütezeit:Juni bis September
Vorkommen:Felder,Brachland
Die Gärtner mögen diese Pflanze nicht,für sie ist die Acker Kratzdistel ein gefürchtetes Unkraut.Sie wird durch Düngung gefördert und ist mit ihrer bis zu 1,5m langen Wurzel und der Fähigkeit,selbst aus kleinen Wurzelstückchen neue Pflanzen zu regenerieren,nur schwer zu besiegen.
Yes, "Thorny" or "thorns" usually refers to bushes or plants with curved thorns like those found on a rose bush. A thistle, or Canada Thistle, that you photographed, in bloom, doesn't have the curved thorns like a rose bush but it has what we call, "stickers," or "spines" but you are correct in calling them thorns or thorny plants because they really are nasty that way.
Yes, I agree. Thorny is definitely a word. This photo really illustrates the word. Beautiful shot!
Wild flowers by any other name... with or with out thorns are just as beautiful to look at. good shot of one.
My mom would pick these on the side of the road... and then make me hold them! lol!! They scared me!
They sure are pretty though!
