Hallo I visited Blindengarten today and found this Plant called Acanthus.
Is it Acanthus mollis?
This is the one, I found on net, grows in Mediterranean region, not wild
but in gardens.
TIA for ID

yes Nabha ji

Often cultivated in California also. It is often interesting to see dried inflorescence even with dried flowers intact often in winter, with new growth emerging from ground.

Yes, Nalini...

the green veins often look a little weird on the plants....

Thanks Prof. Singh ji,
Blindengarten is now on my way to school, so I shall keep an eye on this plant. They also should have beautiful fruits. I shall watch and send fotos, if i get any.
