Robust biennial plant that forms a rosette of leaves in the first year and develops a tall, spiky flower stem in the second year.
The flowers are in dense, cylindrical to oval flower heads (about 4–10 cm long) at the top of the stems, usually pale lilac or lavender. The flowers bloom in rings that extend outward from the center of the head. The flower heads are surrounded by long, spiky bracts that curve upward.
The flowers are a nectar source for bees and butterflies, and the seeds are an important food source for birds.
