It looks like a thistle. Or it could be some form of allium.

Yes, I agree that it’s a thistle. It’s beautiful, but you don’t want to touch it without wearing gloves.

It’s a globe thistle or Echinops bannaticus, I think. I found a shop on Etsy that sells the seeds: EpicGlobalSeeds. I’m pretty sure they grow really quickly because they’re technically “weeds.” I just think they’re beautiful. 😀

  My pleasure! They always remind me of cornflowers, which are just as easy to grow and a more vibrant indigo/blue. I’ve seen “wild” gardens before with both types of plants, and they look stunning together.

In some places in the US thistle is considered an invasive species.
