A wonderful, well behaved woodland plant for shade or part shade. Graceful, arching stems and blue green foliage, make this plant very visually appealing. Like all goldenrods, it is not wind pollinated and does not cause seasonal allergies. It makes a stellar companion to Heart-leaved Aster. According to the National Wildlife Federation this plant is considered a Keystone Native Plant for our region. Plants in this family are used by 120 species of caterpillar as a host plant. Since most birds feed their young almost exclusively on caterpillars during nesting season, utilizing this plant in your landscape also supports birds. This plant family also supports 22 species of pollen specialist bees, making it a great choice for pollinator support.
