Prairie goldenrod
Solidago missouriensis
Prairie goldenrod is a tough, low-maintenance native perennial that thrives in open prairies, meadows, and garden borders with partial to full sun exposure. Water deeply every one to two weeks and allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings, as this plant tolerates dry conditions well once established. Its bright golden flower clusters are excellent for attracting pollinators and late-season wildlife.
