Many specimens have been annotated to Cirsium scariosum which is a highly variable (polymorphic) species (Keil in Flora of North America 2006). (mt.gov)
Cirsium scariosum looks like Medusa was turned into a plant. (creekycedars.com)
meadow thistle ( Cirsium scariosum Nuttall var. (gouv.qc.ca)
Only three genera in Cynareae are represented by native species in the New World, and of these Cirsium is by far the most widely distributed and diverse. (asu.edu)
Native species of Cirsium range from sea level to alpine and from boreal regions of Canada to the tropics of Central America. (asu.edu)
Thistle3
With the priority of maintaining the ecological integrity of its ecosystems, the Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve is committed to conserve the meadow thistle, an indigenous species established in the Mingan region following its migration at the margin of the glacier front during the last glacial retreat. (canada.ca)
Locally known as the "Mingan thistle", the species lives on the upper shore bordering the boreal forest of only a few islands in the park reserve. (canada.ca)
The population of Mingan thistle has been declining significantly since 2011 and is now part of a unique conservation and restoration program (CoRe) that helps to identify what is causing the dwindling of the species in order to implement solutions to improve the population size. (canada.ca)

Taxonomic descriptions, distributions, and illustrations are provided for each species. (uio.no)
Native species1
They have no enemies to control their populations, hence they may become aggrassive colonizers, stealing nutrients and space from native species. (plantsofmagnolia.net)

Year1
Note, species lists are not typically an exhaustive presence/absence survey of an area and often may focus on a single habitat or only contain species visible at a particular time of year (for example, spring annual herbs may go unobserved during much of the year). (nzpcn.org.nz)
Highly1
It is a highly ornamental species with considerable cultural. (sanbi.org)
Plants2
These harsh environments are home to some very specialized species of plants that can handle the extreme weather events. (creekycedars.com)
The alpine is home to a diverse community of plants that range from wet loving species that depend on the snow melt to plants that can handle the harsh, blazing sun and drying winds. (creekycedars.com)
