Solidago 'Spark Plug', commonly known as Goldenrod, is a compact hybrid goldenrod that brings a bright burst of golden-yellow flowers to the late-season garden. Dense plumes of tiny blooms appear in late summer and continue into fall, just as many other perennials are winding down. Its tidy, well-behaved clump fits easily into borders and containers without the aggressive spreading of some wild goldenrods. The flowers are a vital nectar source for bees, butterflies and other pollinators preparing for fall. Despite its reputation, goldenrod does not cause hay fever; its pollen is heavy and carried by insects rather than wind. Plant it in full sun in average, well-drained soil; it tolerates poor soils and dry spells once established.
ORIGIN - Hybrid
EXPOSURE PREFERENCE - Full sun, tolerates am shade
FLOWER COLOR - golden yellow
HEIGHT - 16-18"
HABIT - semi-evergreen
MOISTURE - drought tolerant
HARDINESS ZONES - 4-9
