One of the worst invasive pests here is Cirsium vulgare or Bull Thistle. (nargs.org)
Cirsium discolor (Field Thistle) , together with Cirsium muticum (Swamp Thistle), is Floyd County's native thistle, and a staple of any butterfly garden. (floydnativeplants.org)
Sadly, Cirsium discolor has been targeted for eradication largely due to the invasive behavior of its non-native cousins, the European Bull Thistle ( Cirsium vulgare ) and Canada Thistle ( Cirsium arvense ) which, despite the name, is not native to North America. (floydnativeplants.org)
Cirsium discolor can be distinguished from non-native thistles by the white woolly undersides of the leaves which none of the non-native thistles have and all North America's native thistles do have. (floydnativeplants.org)

Spiny2
There are so many species from such a lot of genera that I thought I'd start a board that was more general - Panayoti and others have been rapping on spiny plants on the Cactus discussions and I love pricklies (although Monica doesn't so I have to keep them out of touch with one another) but above all I think thistles of all sorts are the great gems.

Caution1
Thorny plants such as holly and pyracantha (the firethorn) have made us wary of touching them (although young holly foliage is soft and supple despite its sharp appearance) and childhood encounters with nettles and thistles breed into us wise caution when it comes to handling our native flora.

Walking across Flora Field (arable section) this morning during the volunteering session I flushed a large group of snipe (at least 6, probably 8-10) from the lower northern slope, towards Lower Sowerholme, and then a further 2 nearer Pony Wood. (fairfieldassociation.org)
