Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: maybe Echinops ritro

I love photographing these gorgeous Globe Thistles at any stage. These were growing at the Reader Rock Garden on 7 August 2013. In Calgary, we have seen them growing wild at one of the natural areas (can't think of the name of the place, as it's not a place we normally go to). Not sure, but I believe this is Echinops ritro.
