Eryngium yuccifolium

A wonderful tallgrass prairie plant known as Eryngium yuccifolium often goes by the  name rattlesnake-master or button snake-root. You'll find it thriving in rocky woods, vibrant prairies, and sunny meadows. While most plants in the parsley and carrot family (Apiaceae) have delicately cut leaves and lovely domed flower clusters, the rattlesnake master stands out with its unique features: leaves with striking parallel veins, bristly edges, and a sword-like shape that’s medium green, reminiscent of yuccas (which belong to the lily family). It also showcases tiny, stemless white flowers that gather in adorable globular heads, much like thistles.

Growing to a height of about 3 to 4 feet from the centers of their rosettes, these flowers present themselves in delightful branched clusters at the top of smooth, sturdy stems adorned with whitish, pointed bracts. They're a favorite for butterflies and other insects who love to visit their blooms.

This lovely plant prefers to settle in dry to medium, well-drained soils under the warm embrace of full sun. It's particularly fond of dry, sandy soils, and when conditions are just right, it happily self-seeds. However, if it’s grown in overly fertile soils or less than full sun, the plants may stretch and sprawl. Because this plant has a deep taproot, it doesn’t like to be moved around much, so it’s best left undisturbed once it has settled in.

The intriguing name "rattlesnake master" comes from early European pioneers, who mistakenly thought this plant could cure rattlesnake bites based on the various medicinal uses that Native Americans found for it. The species name yuccifolium, meaning "yucca-leaved," was chosen because of the resemblance of its leaves to those of yuccas.

Miracle cream!
This cream is unbelievable. goes in instantly, makes hands soft after one application and creates a barrier to protect your hands against cold and water. I live in VT and have tried numerous "extreme" hand creams that are heavy and greasy and useless~ this one is the best. I also like that it is fragrance-free except for that mild "Avene" spring water smell. I have two tubes, one for my night table and one next to the kitchen sink. I am 47 and have tried numerous face and body products`` you could say I used to be a "junkie" :) but I always come back to Avene. I have extremely sensitive skin and Avene products are a life saver.

My 75 year old hands appear softer and younger!
Avene Cicalfate Restorative Hand cream leaves my hands feeling very soft! A little goes a long way, I have had mine for a year. Soon I will be purchasing another tube. Yes, it is a little pricey for a hand cream, but does the job better then any other product I have used on my hands. Highly recommend this hand cream if you have dry, sensitive skin. It also has no added fragrance which I really appreciate!

Excellent product at a very good price. I will buy it again.
This is an excellent product at a fair price. The cream creates a barrier that protects the skin, while mosturizes it. leaves hands very soft, and it doesn't feel greasy. I know that this is a favorite brand (Avene) in France, and Amazon offers it at a very good price. I will buy it again, from Amazon. I bought it this year in Paris, and it was more expensive there.
