  1. ageratina altissima

    Ageratina altissima, also known as white snakeroot, is a species of flowering plant in the aster family. It is native to North America and is typically found in wooded areas. The plant usually grows 1-1.5 meters tall and produces small, white flower heads in the late summer or fall. The leaves and stems of the Ageratina altissima are highly toxic and can be poisonous to livestock if ingested. It was discovered that the plant's toxicity was the cause of "milk sickness" in the early 19th century - a disease that killed many settlers in the American Midwest.

  1. Ageratina altissima

    White Snakeroot, also known as White Sanicle or Tall Boneset, is a poisonous perennial herb in the family Asteraceae, native to eastern North America. An older binomial name for this species was Eupatorium rugosum, but the genus Eupatorium has undergone taxonomic revision by botanists and a number of the species once included there have been moved to other genera. Plants are upright or sometimes ascending, growing to 1.5 meters tall, producing single or multi-stemmed clumps. They are found in woods and brush thickets where they bloom mid to late summer or fall. The flowers are a clean white color and after blooming, small seeds with fluffy white tails are released to blow in the wind. This species is adaptive to different growing conditions and can be found in open shady areas with open bare ground; it can be weedy in shady landscapes and in hedgerows. There are two different varieties Ageratina altissima var. angustata and Ageratina altissima var. roanensis; they differ in the length of the flower phyllaries and shape of the apices.
