Boneset

Eupatorium perfoliatum
 
These are tremendous flowers—tall, majestic, and an important food source for pollinators at the end of the growing season. Boneset’s unusual name comes from early beliefs that it could ease pain, especially in cases of “Breakbone Fever,” now known as Dengue Fever.
