Stiff goldenrod
Solidago rigida
Stiff goldenrod is a tough, low-maintenance native perennial that thrives in full sun to part shade and tolerates a wide range of soil conditions. Water regularly during establishment, then reduce frequency as the plant becomes self-sufficient. It spreads by rhizomes and self-seeding, so divide clumps every few years to keep it tidy.
