In February, I wrote a post about killing musk thistles at my mother's place near Boerne. At the time, I wondered how to tell the difference between a musk thistle and our native Texas thistle (Cirsium texanum). To help, I took some photos of Texas thistles that grow in our Meadow. At the bottom, I'll post a musk thistle photo.
Below, musk thistle (Carduus nutans), an invasive.

This is really helpful, thank you! We’re going to dig musk thistles out of our meadow but wanted to make sure not to remove any desirable thistles.

Thanks for reminding me about this post! I need to review it because I’ve got some questionable thistles in the front yard. :-)
