More Information
-
The teasel (Dipsacus spp.) is a fascinating plant, valued for both its practical uses and its striking geometric structure. Its cone-shaped flower head follows the Fibonacci sequence, with spiny bracts arranged in a spiral pattern that maximizes space efficiency—an example of phyllotaxis in nature. Historically, teasel heads were essential in the wool industry, used to raise the nap on fabric before metal carding tools were invented. Today, they remain popular in dried flower arrangements and crafts. This blend of mathematical beauty and human utility makes teasel a remarkable plant.
