This plant looks like a forget-me-not with spines. Could be a weed!

I think it's Anchusa arvensis, Boraginaceae, a weed (native to Europe).

I think you are right! It seems that it can be a noxious weed, but I have never seen it before so hopefully it will not spread through the Natureparks!

Should this species have an asterisk beside its name (to denote non-indigenous) or a comment about it being a noxious weed?
