Seaside goldenrod
Solidago sempervirens
Seaside goldenrod is a tough, adaptable perennial that thrives in coastal gardens, meadows, and borders with partial to full sun and average moisture. Once established, it is remarkably low-maintenance and can tolerate salt spray, poor soils, and brief dry periods. Its brilliant golden-yellow flower plumes in late summer and fall are a magnet for bees, butterflies, and migrating birds.
