Plant goldenrod in semi-natural gardens
Originally the Goldenrod or Goldenrod (Solidago) originates from North America, but has been widespread in Central Europe for many centuries both as proliferating, released weeds and as a cultivated ornamental plant. Between July and September, small, bright yellow flower heads appear in dense, terminal panicles. The horst-forming, upright perennial can, depending on the variety, be between 30 and up to 200 inches high.
