Resembling something out of the Southwestern United States in both name and appearance, Rattlesnake Master has an arid, heated look about it.
Perhaps it’s the yucca-like foliage, or the stiffness of the plant, or it’s the flowers, miniscule and nestled deep within a hardened carapace. No matter what the reason, it always comes down to one simple fact: this is quite a striking plant.
Ideal for gardens as specimens or in small groups, this native species will add texture and color to almost any perennial border. Don’t worry, it doesn’t attract rattlesnakes! The name is derived from an old belief that the roots could be used to heal rattlesnake bites.
Easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun. Prefers dryish, sandy soils.
