Re: Whatzit?
I suspect that it's the same as this:

But none of the images that match (like the above) identify the plant/weed. They are all macro photography sites that consider it "outstanding", elegant, ... All sorts of synonyms for a pretty picture of a flower.

Good, Robert. Same family, Asteraceae, but different plant.

Re: Whatzit?
No more guesses?
It is a Thistle, specifically a Musk thistle (Carduus nutans) also called nodding thistle. It is the most common type of thistle plant found in Kentucky. It is considered a noxious weed because of its ability to reproduce rapidly and spread easily by wind to unprotected land areas. Musk thistle only reproduces by seed, therefore, the major method of control is to cut them down or mow your land before they can flower.

That is a heck of a mower. I guess the user only needs to guide it. ??

Yes, self propelled with steering levers on the handles. I have one with a single blade and I have to wrestle with it to get it to turn.

You can ride behind a walk behind. They make a little trailer for the operator . Some use a tractor seat on two wheels . Some have a one wheeled skateboard.
