HSMSHS - Prickly

I didn't do yesterdays prompt as I was busy decorating but thought I'd join in again today.
Prickly - with small sharp spikes: having a surface or skin with prickles on it.

I don't know what these striped flowers are called but they are fab and prickly looking.

I love the the way they mingle with the lavender.

    They're not local that I know of. I took the picture at Kew.

    Those prickly plants look very painful. The lavender is lovely too.
