You are ahead of us with the golden rod; they have just begun to show color here.

Looks like you have quite a group of them...looking very summery.

I LOVE goldenrod. Your pictures are beautiful.

I have a bunch of 'golden fleece' which is pretty short and shrubby. I also just saw 'little lemon' which is quite lemony yellow and also fairly short.

Fantastic. I had one volunteer about four years ago and thot they were bad for those with allergies, so I yanked it out. Then I read where they don't bother the allergic like rag weed and felt bad ever since. Today, I notice I have a young one blooming in the same spot. It must be from the old root. Celebrate, celebrate.
