DO NOT KNOW THE NAME

of this plant. Found out is one of the Echinops plants.
Whaterever the name, I find it fascinating.
Many thanks for the huge response on my bee close up, such wonderful comments, stars and hearts, thank you, thank you all.
Sometimes it is only in a late stadium that one discovers the sharpness of a capture, and one stares at it, and does not really know how this did happen.
A fine day this Saturday, not only weatherwise, next to the food shopping, we did some exercises, made a drawing, walked to the Weser and back, At this time the sun still shines on our town in the valley, a lovely sight.

My haiku:

As round as a ball
Half hidden between the leaves
I still can spot you

And the proverb:

He/she that desires but little has no need of much.
