Not sure which type of thistle this is, it's in the prairie plant re-intro program at the prairie so it's hard telling. The education center was closed so there was no one to ask. I think it's Nodding Thistle, but am not a hundred percent sure.
Musings about what I do with my natural, compost, and rust dyed fabrics, ribbons, and fibers.

I think it is a 'Nodding Thistle' (Carduus nutans). More info on this site:

NOdding? Eeek! Looks like a nightmare to me - what a vicious looking beastie! What a great design it would make, tho...
