Elm-leaved Goldenrod brightens the shade garden in fall with airy clusters of small, brilliant yellow flowers that envelop the tops of tall, arching stems. These blooms are known to attract a multitude of pollinators, including at least a dozen different types of native bee along with the beloved Monarch butterfly. Its ovate leaves, with toothed margins and branching veins, can grow up to six inches long at the base, becoming much smaller as they ascend the stem.Like all goldenrods, its pollen is heavy, sticky and cannot be wind-borne, so it is not to blame for seasonal allergies.It is low-maintenance and, once established, drought-tolerant and deer-resistant. Makes a beautiful cut flower.
