Description
36" tall x 24" wide (cutting propagated). What a perfect name for this spectacular Goldenrod! The golden-yellow flowers arch gracefully downward like glittering trails from an exploding skyrocket. This late summer/early fall bloomer is indispensable for mixing with other late-blooming perennials. A very easy plant to grow, it thrives in any compost-enriched soil and appreciates regular moisture. Cut back in mid-spring to 3” in height. Contrary to popular belief, Solidago doesn't cause allergies; its pollen is sticky, not windblown, and is moved from plant to plant by bees.

Review highlights
Reviews
"Tiny plant. Very misleading. Its a 5” DEEP pot not wide. Read carefully. And none of the plants are even labeled."
Not suited for north Georgia
"This is year 2 in a large container in mostly full sun in Georgia, and it has not performed. It will be shovel pruned to make way for something better."
Pushy
"I love the form of this goldenrod! By the second year, this is crowding out the neighboring plants and going gangbusters. Bees and pollinators love it - blooms late September all the way to frost in Zone 6. I really like this plant. I have it between Agastache Ava and Agastache Desert something. The three plants intertwine and make a beautiful side to my path. Underneath, I have a lot of spring bulbs (daffodils). Once they finish, the big guys start growing."
Doing great in partially shaded bed
"I got this variety of goldenrod quite a few years ago, and after the first couple years have mostly ignored it. It remains happy in a large, partially shaded bed, and I still love the appearance of the flowers. It's of medium height, not sprawling all over the place like the no-name variety I inherited with the garden. I'd definitely buy this again."
Sadly not deer proof
"Sadly this plant is not deer resistant. In fact, I have never seen the blooms because just before I can get these under ugly deer proof cages, the herd shows up for the salad buffet and wipes them out, along with the RM penstemon."
So far, so good
"So far, this plant is growing well. It came in good shape, was easy to plant and began growing immediately. Hoping for beautiful yellow blooms later this growing season."
What a sS
"This plant was purchase online during a sale July 2023. It was added to my Hummingbird Garden I started May 2023. What a spectacular finish to the flowering season with the sprays of bright yellow spears that arched over a smaller plant. It is the middle of January 2024, as I look out at the plant the way it finished the season. How happy this plant made me with its robust growth and flowering. I will purchase more of this type plant."
Brilliant!
"These plants are carefree and reliable bloomers. I use them as backdrops or mid-garden layers to highlight other plantings. They are big and beautiful-the pollinators can't stay off them."
Plants not the same but tabs all the same
"I ordered & planted 6 of these, 2 of them are a different plant entirely though they were marked with the same tab. I assumed the 2 odd looking ones were younger, but they are totally different & not doing much. The other 4 are doing fine. Hoping I can get the 2 odd ones replaced"
Healthy and Beautiful!
"I received 2 healthy plants that grew well immediately. They are now good size and about to bloom. I couldn't be happier! I was reluctant to buy plants through the mail but it was very successful. High Country Gardens had the variety that I was searching for. I will undoubtedly shop again!"
