Leaves: blades elliptic, 30–90+ × 10–40 cm, 1–2 times pinnately lobed, lobes linear to ovate, strongly undulate, main spines slender, 5–15 mm, faces often glaucous, glabrous or thinly tomentose and soon glabrescent; basal present at flowering, petiolate or winged-petiolate; proximal cauline winged-petiolate; mid sessile, much reduced, less deeply lobed, bases clasping, short-decurrent 0–2 cm; distal linear or lanceolate, bractlike, very spiny.
