Donkey thorn (Onopordum acanthium). Have you heard of this plant? On the way from my house to the bus is a large, uninhabited area where there is a lot of grass and various plants. You may have already seen in my photos which area I am talking about. These days I search a lot about medicinal plants, so I came across this bulb. It is very useful for cleansing the liver and for treating the prostate. You can find the rest on google. The flower is beautiful and has an intoxicating, sweet scent. Everything would be fine if I hadn't seen this insect on one flower. I mean ... So how can I pick a flower from that plant in the future.😕 This really doesn't make sense.😊

Beautiful place, perfect place to unwind and just wanna say knowledge is power, you knew some of medicinal plants, its an advantage though
I inherited that knowledge and interest from my mom who only had 4 grades of school. I still wonder where she could have learned all that.
I thought it has two flower colors, yellow and pink/lilac. I hope the yellow that I see in the first photo are not all insects...maybe know first if this insects are friendly so you can ask them to leave the flower that you like 😊
