This spiny herb was a weed of wheat fields in our area..

I found this wild flower plant in a 'wasteland' near wheat fields. This plant has come up only now that is March and in spring time!

I found that this is very similar to the Mexican Poppy in terms of its overall structure etc.

Would appreciate if someone can identify this plant.

this beautiful snap is of carthamus lanatus most probably commonly called as safflower

Carthamus oxyacanthus as per images herein.
