Ohio Goldenrod has a compact form that belies its large exuberant floral display, late in the season. The superb foliage with lush, lance-like leaves radiates out from the base. Excellent for moist clay, it also thrives in good garden soil.
All Goldenrods support a host of pollinator and insect activity, and this goldenrod is no exception. A couple of interesting and beautiful moths – the Wavy-Lined Emerald, and Green Leuconycta – use this goldenrod as a larval host, as do numerous other smaller moths.

Planting and Cultivation Notes
Goldenrods are often mistakenly blamed as the cause of hay fever - an allergic reaction to wind-borne pollen. But they, and most native wildflowers, do not have wind-borne pollen. Instead, the pollen is moved from bloom to bloom by bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
Native plants can be grown outside of their native range in the appropriate growing conditions. This map shows the native range, as well as the introduced range, of this species.
