The thistle bud (Na'vi name: fkxakewll meaning "itch plant"), a common forest plant on Pandora.
The Na'vi name comes from the glands on the leaves that contain a substance that causes a skin rash on contact.
The seeds of the plant are an important staple of the Na'vi diet. They need to be harvested carefully, to avoid the toxin glands. The harvesters need to wait until the seeds are mature, and then whack the stem below the inflourescence with a stick, causing it to fall to the ground. The seeds can then be collected easily, though any nearby animals will often compete for the seeds.
