Posting here rather than the native plant group because I would like to know if others have a varigated form. Four years ago the driveway was resurfaced and the next year one of my goldenrod plants started to become varigated, 1/2 of plant. I did not see anything eating the seeds so thought was sterile. This year about 6 feet away have found several seedlings so my supposition was wrong.

Three years ago I started noticing several plants in my travels that were showing stripping and blotching. My friend that creats varigated plants for a sideline was not impressed and told me the varigation was common in goldenrods. Does anyone in this group have the varigated form in their woodlands?
