$7.99
Originally named Aster ptarmicoides, this plant was re-named to Solidago ptarmicoides in 1981 as a result of research by two botanists, Brouillet and Semple, who realized that this plant belongs to the goldenrod family. For more confusion, another often-used name is Oligoneuron ptarmicoides.
Anyhow, this plant has aster-like, small, pale white flowers in clusters and narrow goldenrod-like leaves. So, we can say it is somewhere between the two, and that's why it could become a parent of the new hybrid perennial called Solidaster (Solidaster luteus).
The value of this wildflower is that it's late flowering, provides good pollinator support, grows low in clumps and has an extremely high tolerance to dry and poor soils! It is also tolerant to heat, humidity, and drought.

Upland White Goldenrod
I bought these to use as a border along a rock garden with well draining soil. The plants arrived in great shape, and have thrived since I put them in the ground. I live in zone 6A, and have been watering them regularly due to having a much drier spring than normal.
