Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

This goldenrod only grows to about 15 inches tall and about 24 inches wide. The sturdy, arching golden-yellow flower stems are profuse and provide wonderful late-summer to early fall color. Pair with fall blooming asters and ornamental grasses for a striking fall display. Foliage is bright green, and more rounded than other cultivars. A Mt. Cuba Center introduction.
