Rattlesnake Master (Eryngium yuccifolium) brings an unexpected, architectural look to native gardens with its blue-gray, sword-like leaves and spiky, orb-like flowers. This 32-plant pack is ideal for gardeners looking to add bold texture and visual contrast to prairie plantings, pollinator gardens, or naturalized borders.

In mid-summer, clusters of silvery-white, thistle-like blooms float above the foliage, attracting a wide range of bees, wasps, and butterflies. Though a Midwestern prairie native, Rattlesnake Master’s desert-like aesthetic makes it a standout in modern, drought-tolerant landscapes.

It thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, and while it may self-seed in bare spots, established gardens or mulched beds help keep it in check. In young plantings, it may need support or staking, but once surrounded by companion plants, it remains upright with ease.

Why Choose a Tray of Rattlesnake Master?

• Unique form & foliage – Adds structure and contrast to garden designs.
• Pollinator magnet – Loved by bees, butterflies & beneficial wasps.
• Low-maintenance once established – Drought-tolerant and long-lived.

Plant Rattlesnake Master in sunny, open ground for a visually striking native that offers both ecological value and year-round character.
