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?
