How to fertilize Euboean Thistle
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Euboean Thistle after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

My first public propagation pilfering #NoddingThistle I found this beautiful fuzzy pink ball behind my car thats growing in the back of my car mechanics parking lot. It was among weeds so I plucked off the top, it's super prickly!! I now have it in water to see what grows. Does anyone grow this indoors or outdoors?
