Notes

Stemless thistle (Cirsium acaule) is a perennial for low maintenance plantings and ground cover. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It blooms in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn. The fragrant flowers attract butterflies and bees. You can count on it to bring pollinators to your garden through two seasons of bloom.

Pairs well with Toadflax, Sedge, and Pyrethrum.
