Prickly plant of the genus Dipsacus (6)

I believe the answer is:

teasel

(Other definitions for teasel that I've seen before include "it helps us to nap" , "Elates with nap-brushing device" , "Plant with spiny purple flower heads" , "Dried flower head" , "Prickly wild plant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
