Description
Solidago canadensis
Spectacular fall food source for pollinators, Idaho native, and potent medicinal.
An indispensable food source for pollinators, providing ample nectar late in the season when other flowers have faded. Used medicinally for all sorts of interesting reasons from curing flu to preventing diarrhea, and said to bring luck in gambling! Put it in a neglected spot to prevent it from getting out of control. Contains chaff--and love!
