A Week of Weeds - Sowthistles

Prickly Sowthistle: Sonchus asper


Smooth Sowthistle: Sonchus oleraceus
You might be as surprised as me but my research has reached the firm conclusion that both of the above are sowthistles. They form a rosette to survive the winter and then spring forth in spring getting a head start on their annual competitors.
