Description: You would find this native perennial typically in open woods, glades, thickets and prairies throughout the Eastern US and Canada, except for the Deep South. It features tiny, bright yellow, daisy-like flowers borne in dense, erect, flat-topped terminal clusters atop stiff, broad-leaved hairy stems in clumps typically growing 3-5 feet tall. Individual flowers (to half-inch diameter) attractive to bees and butterflies, are larger than those of most other goldenrods and bloom late summer to early autumn. The large softly hairy leaves are attractive all summer, turning a dusty rose in autumn. Site this plant in full sun to partial shade, with well-drained soils, dry to moderate moisture. | ||||
