Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.

  • 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.
