Goldenrod, Solbut

GOLDRUSH is the result of an open-pollination of unnamed selections of Solidago cutleri that occurred in 1998.
GOLDRUSH is reportedly superior to the species in the following ways: (1) larger, more uniform and less straggly plants, (2) brighter yellow ray flowers and (3) better resistance to powdery mildew.
GOLDRUSH grows to 12” tall but spreads to as much as 30” over time.
It forms attractive mounds of lanceolate, serrated, medium green leaves.
In August and September, the foliage mound becomes covered with tiny daisy-like bright yellow flowers densely packed into 4” long terminal and axillary rods.
