Solidago speciosa

The sunniest blooms in the autumn landscape! One of the most important US native flowers for supporting biodiversity and the food chain, Goldenrod is a must-plant for any garden or open wildflower space. And while there are many varieties of goldenrod, showy goldenrod is a stunner and truly lives up to its name! Lush yellow flowers on sturdy stems around three feet high brighten the landscape from September to November, and are a critical source of autumn food for many pollinators and insects, including monarchs and many native bees.

Showy Goldenrod is not an aggressive spreader like some other types of goldenrod can be. It often gets a bad reputation because it is frequently confused with ragweed, who causes awful fall allergies with its airborne pollen, but goldenrod, like most native wildflowers, does not have wind-borne pollen and does not cause allergies. Common folklore says that goldenrod’s first blooms are exactly six weeks before the first frost. Will tolerate most soil as long as there is enough drainage, but prefers rocky or clay soils. Goldenrod seeds germinate best after cold stratification. Typically grown for leaves and flowers. Perennial.
