Canadian goldenrod
Solidago canadensis
Canadian goldenrod is a tough, fast-growing perennial that thrives in full sun to part shade with average moisture. It requires very little intervention once established and spreads readily, so divide clumps every 2-3 years to keep it in bounds. An excellent choice for pollinator gardens, it puts on a brilliant golden display in late summer and autumn.
