Boneset

This North American native thrives in wet meadows, woodlands, and along stream banks, making it an excellent choice for naturalistic and water-wise garden designs. Known for its immune-boosting, anti-inflammatory, and fever-reducing properties, Boneset has been traditionally used to treat colds, flu, fever, and other respiratory ailments. The leaves and flowers are typically used to make teas, tinctures, and poultices. As a native perennial, Boneset serves as a food source for bees and butterflies and as shelter for insects and small wildlife. Its robust root system also helps stabilize soil to reduce erosion.
