Also known as Roughleaf or Roughstem Goldenrod, this perennial herb grows 2 to 5 feet tall and in large masses. It produces tiny, bright yellow flowers borne in dense, plume-like bunches in September and October. This plant is deer-resistant and grows in full sun, and in wet, well-drained soils. It is a valuable source of food for honey bees and birds.
