Inhabiting grassland in mountainous regions, Echinops
setifer grows
to approximately one meter in height. With long petioles, leaves are
in a long oblong shape, pinnately deeply cleft in lobes, with
margins with prickle-like sharply pointed serrations. The bottom
sides of the leaves with arachnoid hairs look white. Flowers heads
comprise single tubular flowers; gathering together, they become
blue-purple ball-flowers approximately 5cm across and bloom on shoot
apexes and branch tips. Bloom time: August-September. |
