Notes
'Leraft' goldenrod (Solidago 'Leraft') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, and meadows. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average, loamy or clay soil. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit it, and it blooms in summer and again in autumn. Deer rarely make it their first choice. It tolerates drought once settled in.
Pairs well with Black-eyed Susan, Switchgrass, and Swamp milkweed.
