Chris - The Globe Centura is opening!
I promised pics when it started to open. The plant is about 4 feet tall now. Only a couple of buds open but tons more to come. I will take a few more once there is.
I only wish they would last longer. :sad: First one I took about two weeks ago. A close up of a bud. One of the buds opened. They are spectacular when in full bloom. |

Wowza! What a cool plant! Where did you get it??? Can it only grow in a certain climate?

I think most thistle-like plants are pretty hardy in cold climes, with the exception of the globe artichoke.
