Eryngium Yuccifolium
Widely distributed perennial that is an indicator of a good prairie. Long lived perennial that adds great visual and ecologically. Host plant to the imperiled, G2 classified Eryngium stem-borer moth, Papaipema eryngii. Limited quantity since it’s tricky to grow from seed and takes a long time to grow.
