echioides (= Picris echiodes; bristly
oxtongue) is a common weed species. It is a largish, erect
plant that feels quite rough because of the bristle-like
hairs on the leaves, stems and phyllaries. The phyllaries
are distinctive - with the outer row of broad phyllaries and
the upright inner row of narrow ones. |
