Hairy Goldenrod
Solidago hispida, also known as hairy goldenrod, is a perennial wildflower native to Michigan and the UP. This plant is tough. It takes sandy soils and hot dry conditions like a champ. It is a compact plant with an attractive flower spike that adds a delicate flicker of color in front of taller plants. Blooms a little sooner than other goldenrods and continues through fall. Like all goldenrods, it is not wind pollinated and is unlikely to cause seasonal allergies.
Hairy Goldenrod reaches 2 to 3 feet tall and flowers from July to October with a yellow blossom.
It prefers full sun, dry soil and will grow in loam or sand. It is also well-suited for rocky areas and shallow soils.
Available in:
1 quart 4.5" pot, with deep, established roots.
38 plug flats, good for covering large areas.
