Plant Common Name

Hybrid Goldenrod, Little Lemon Goldenrod

General Description

Offering a compact habit and a late-summer bonanza of large plumy lemon-yellow flower clusters, this hybrid goldenrod is perfect for the front of the perennial border. The erect flower stems arise from tidy, dense, well-behaved clumps of attractive lance-shaped leaves.

Plant Little Lemon goldenrod in full to partial sun in any average to fertile soil that has good drainage. It is lovely combined with dwarf ornamental grasses such as blue-leaved fescues and purple-flowered pennisetums. It is also effective in ground-covering masses or as a single rock garden specimen. Contrary to common belief, goldenrod does not cause hay fever.
