Notes
'Little Lemon' goldenrod (Solidago 'Little Lemon') is a perennial for borders and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Tiny lemon yellow flowers cover its branched stems in summer, and bees and butterflies visit them. Goldenrods do not cause hay fever. Deer tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Feather reed grass, Buffalo grass, and Edelweiss.
