Rattlesnake Master is a Midwest native plant which occurs in rocky woods, prairies and glades. It was a common plant of the vast, tallgrass prairie. Rattlesnake Master has bold, basal rosettes of parallel-veined, bristly-edged, sword-shaped leaves resembling those of yucca. Tall stalks rise above foliage with tiny, stemless, greenish-white flowers tightly packed into globular, 1" diameter heads resembling thistles.
