Though not native to the US this incredibly weedy looking plant is an excellent nectar plant for the perennial garden. With all thistles I highly recommend dead heading as they are prolific spreaders. This particular plant loves bad sandy soil. The leaves are thorn covered and sharp enough to draw blood. You don't want this spreading to your lawn! This video shows what 3 plants look like.
