Boneset (Eupatorium perfoliatum)

PriceFrom $7.50
Excluding Sales Tax
Boneset is a robust 4' to 6' tall native perennial most often found growing in moist or wet soils in meadows, prairies, low woods, ditches, and along streams. It grows well in both full sun or part shade. The plant flowers from mid-summer until fall and the small white flowers are in pretty, fuzzy looking, flat-topped clusters. The stem appears to perforate the rough surfaced leaves. Gardeners use Boneset on moist sites in woodland gardens, wildflower meadows, and around ponds and water features. Boneset has a long history of extensive use in herbal medicine by Native Americans and early settlers. Boneset is not palatable to deer, but it does attract butterflies and other pollinators.
