Rattlesnake Master (Eryngium yuccifolium) is a summer blooming perennial that grows naturally in open woodlands and tall grass prairies. The white, dense ball-shaped flowers and long, clumping leaves are striking in the garden. It flourishes in full sun and can adapt to a wide range of soils, but prefers moist, well-drained soil. It can grow to be 4-5 feet tall, and is a larval host for the Rattlesnake-master Borer Snake Moth. Indigenous peoples used the leaves to weave baskets and sandals. Rattlesnake Master is perfect for a water garden or pollinator garden.
