WHITE UPLAND GOLDENROD (Solidago ptarmicoides)

My favourite goldenrod! White flowers with creamy centers are arranged in flat-topped clusters. This species sometimes hybridizes with stiff and Riddell’s goldenrods, producing flowers that range from creamy white to creamy yellow within the same flower cluster. The leaves have characters that are halfway between each parent plant. These hybrids aren’t rare, but they are significantly less common than the pure species.
