Carlina acaulis, also known as the stemless carline thistle, dwarf carline thistle, or silver thistle, is a perennial plant in the Asteraceae family, native to alpine regions of central and southern Europe. The name acaulis, meaning 'without a stem', refers to its flower head resting directly on a basal leaf rosette. Legend has it that Charlemagne discovered this plant as a treatment for the plague after following a divine vision.

The plant features spiny, deeply lobed leaves in a 20 cm wide rosette. Its large flowerhead, up to 10 cm in diameter, has silvery-white ray florets and yellow-brown tubular disc florets. The flowerhead closes in wet weather to protect its pollen, a behavior thought to predict rain. Carlina acaulis blooms from August to September and thrives in chalky soils and dry pastures up to 2,800 m in altitude.
