Description: Very big thistle. This is a garden escape and if it spreads I hate to think what it will do to this nature reserve.

Description: This magnificent specimen greets visitors to Walkern. It must be at least 8' tall, far too high for me to photograph the flowers that were open! Grey/Green foliage, huge leaves and large winged spiny stems.
