Teasel orDipsucus sylvestris is a common weed in southern Ontario. I love the seed heads. They have short, stiff bristles and are conical in shape. I took this yesterday at the Guelph Arboretum. See other photos straight out of the camera at http://www.murrieta365.com/

Even though this is a 'weed' it looks beautiful in your picture!
Hi!
We have those here, but never knew the name of them. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day!

The seed head is interesting and no doubt the bristles are quite sharp.
Oh, I love it, too. Though weeds can be bothersome, they can be very beautiful. Thanks for joining in, today.
G'morn ~ These kind of weeds create exquisite floral arrangements, naturally or sprayed with color. I never knew them by anything other than 'thistle'.
Have a beautiful week.
