Goldenrod 'Golden dwarf'

Long golden flower spikes top off rough textured arching stems to provide a spectacular burst of colour at the very end of summer. This is compact form of Goldenrod. Goldenrod is a perennial woody flowering plant, most varieties of which have conical panicles of small yellow flowers in Summer and Autumn. The leaves vary, but most varieties have narrow, tapering leaves around 4" long, that are hairy on the underside. Plants can also vary considerably in height, depending on the variety.
