Eupatorium

Eupatorium is a genus of flowering plants that belongs to the family Asteraceae. They are commonly known as "bonesets" or "Joe Pye weed" because of their historical use in treating fevers and other ailments. Eupatorium plants are native to North and South America, and are now grown in many other parts of the world as ornamental plants.

Eupatorium plants have tall, sturdy stems that can reach up to eight feet in height. The flowers are typically pink, white, or purple, and have many small, clustered florets. The foliage of Eupatorium plants is often green and lance-shaped, and can be quite large.
