Solidago nemoralis

Goldenrod (Solidago nemoralis) Genus:  Solidago This is one of the smallest species of goldenrod, topping out at only 4 to 6 inches high in poor soils, and 2 feet high in fertile soils. It is considered a garden-worthy species, with gray-green leaves that form clumps and languid, one-sided yellow plumes. It is tolerant of both sandy and clay soils. Noteworthy Characteristics:  Solidago reliably provides end-of-season color in blazing shades of yellow to the wild garden or naturalistic plantings.  Care:  Grow in lean to moderately fertile, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Deadhead to prevent prolific self-seeding. Propagation:  Divide in spring or fall. Problems:  Spot anthracnose, powdery mildew, rust, fungal spots.
