Wildflowers of KY: Nodding Thistle 2012-06-01 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Risking a good and maybe justified whupping for calling the nodding thistle a wildflower when in these parts itis a vexing pest, a noxious weed, couldn't help post it, pretty as it is, and with the bumbly bee likely thinking it bent the plant over, and caused it to nod. Its entry in Wikipedia (Cardus nutans formusk or nodding thistle has very little nice to say about. Many times "bad" plants are edible, medicinal, or a promising cure for cancer, but this invasive plant hasn't much going for it, save it's a member of the sunflower family. -EW.
