Ground milk thistle seeds

Ground Milk Thistle Seeds by Jacob Hooy. The milk thistle (Silybum marianum) is an annual or biennial plant belonging to the Asteraceae family. The name derives from the legend that the white spots on the leaves were caused by the milk of the Virgin Mary. The plant is native to southern Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. In the Netherlands, the plant is an adventitious species and is sometimes found growing wild. The milk thistle is also used in ornamental gardens. The plant grows to a height of 60–150 cm and has a grooved stem with slightly woolly to cobweb-like hairs. The waxy leaves, which are white-spotted or edged with white along the veins, have yellowish spines along the margins. The lower leaves are sessile, elongated and sinuately pinnately lobed, whilst the upper leaves are lanceolate and heart-shaped, clasping the stem.
