A luminous late-season bloomer, Showy Goldenrod adds rich golden color to prairies and gardens just as other wildflowers begin to fade. Its tall, upright stems are crowned with dense pyramidal clusters of small, radiant yellow flowers, creating a warm, glowing display that supports pollinators well into autumn.
