Upper leaves narrowly elliptical or oblanceolate, pinnatipartite, glabrate above, shortly white-tomentose below, about 9 by 3 in., lobes from a broad base terminating in long stout spinous points, the lower lobes smaller and less approximated. Heads about 1 1/2 in. long (in fruit), very numerous, crowded into a globose head of 4 in. diameter. Outer setaceous bracts long, some nearly reaching the top of the head. Inner involucral bracts about 20, fasciculate-spinous at the tip except the 5 innermost ones which are connate below. Achenes abovoid, pilose. Pappus of approximated narrow ciliate scales rather longer than the hairs on the achenes, connate below.
