Boneset (Eupatorium perfoliatum) - #wildflowerwednesday - This North American native goes by several other names, including #agueweed, #feverwort, and #sweatingplant, and has a long medicinal #history. In fact, #boneset gets its primary name because it was one used to treat dengue, or “breakbone,” fever. While the #plant is still sometimes grown and foraged for its healing properties, it’s most often used by #gardeners for its #ornamental features to attract #pollinators. https://www.instagram.com/p/BoMPEYmgrKa/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mf6ot9w8o1r8
