Schoenocaulon texanum, commonly known as Texas feathershank, is a species of flowering plant in the bunchflower family. It is native to North America, where it is found in Mexico and the United States. It grows in dry, calcareous, rocky grasslands and open scrubby woodlands. It is an herbaceous bulbous perennial with basal, grass-like leaves and a long, compact spike inflorescence. The flowers are greenish-white and have six petals, and the fruit is a three-lobed capsule. It typically flowers in late spring and early summer, although later season flowering can be induced by rainfall.
