Goldenrods for shade?

I wonder if many people are aware that there are species goldenrods that
grow in shade. 

This seemed like a good topic for the shadegarden list.  I have zig-zag goldenrod (Solidago flexicaulis) growing in my woods.  I got the seedlings from our Minnesota Native Plant Society.  After growing it since 1997, I might have 4 plants now, instead of 3, so it's not aggressive for me.  It's a nice touch of yellow in late summer in the woods.  What are others recommendations for late summer blooms in shade?
