A widespread native of the eastern United States, it forms bold, dense clusters of long, sharp leaves that look super all season long. In the summer, large spikes of showy ivory flowers are produced. Wild plants are most commonly found growing in open, upland forests and prairies where the soil is often sandy. Adam’s needle forms large, spiky rosettes of long, sword-shaped leaves. These range in color from medium green to gray or blue-green. Mature clumps will form offsets to create slowly spreading colonies. Tall flower stalks are produced in late=spring to summer. These are lined with ivory, bell-shaped blooms that are fragrant and pollinated at night by yucca moths. The blooms are followed by bulbous, green seed capsules that turn dry and dark brown when mature. Full sun and well-drained, average to poor, sandy loam are best for this resilient plant, and little care and maintenance are needed to keep it performing well. Established plants are tolerant of heat and harsh sun. Adam's needle looks great planted in masses in dry, sunny beds and borders, and its coarse, upright foliage is highly deer resistant.
