Devils walking stick (also called "Hercules-club") is a small tree with thick, prickly stems. This Eastern U.S. native has amazing white panicles in late summer and it stays in bloom for up to 2 months. This grouping volunteered itself in my dad's pasture in Alabama and is an awesome view from the front porch. This slow-growing plant does well in sun or shade and thrives in rugged areas.
