Product Description

Rattlesnake Master is an upright native perennial with leathery lance-like blue green foliage and branched stems bearing cylindrical flower clusters.  The flower orbs coated in tiny fragrant white flowers bloom all throughout summer attracting a wide variety of pollinators.  Prefers full sun and average well-drained soil.  Drought and deer resistant.

Eryngium yuccifolium  is a host for two specialized moths, the seed-eating moth and the rattlesnake master stem-borer, and occasionally plays host for the black swallowtail butterfly.  It also attracts parasitic wasps that help take care of garden pests.
