Echinops, also known as Globe Thistle, is a striking flower known for its spherical, spiky blooms in shades of silvery blue to steel grey. Its unique globe-like form and bold texture make it a favorite for adding structure, contrast, and intrigue to both fresh and dried floral arrangements.

Despite its spiny appearance, Echinops brings a refined, architectural quality and pairs beautifully with soft florals, grasses, and wildflower elements. It symbolizes independence, resilience, and strength.
