Solidago rugosa 'Fireworks' - ROUGH-LEAVED GOLDENROD 'FIREWORKS'
Compact and shorter version of the rough goldenrod. Surprisingly drought tolerant too.
Solidago 'Fireworks' is perfectly named for its flowering stems which look like golden streamers of fireworks in late summer and early fall.
Grows to 40" tall and 35" wide, strictly upright stems never flop. Makes strong clumps and can self-seed in ideal conditions, but this is one of the well behaved goldenrods, so better suited for home landscaping.
Flowers are fragrant and are good cut flowers and they will attract many kinds of pollinators, including butterflies.
Highly adaptable to any soils, including the worst type of clay, the only need is preferably sunny or half-shaded spot. Prefers average moisture to moist (wet) soils, but will tolerate summer drought too.
Hardy in zones 4 to 9.
Goes well with fall Asters, Boltonia, Echinacea purpurea dn it's hybrids, Eupatoriums, herbaceous Hibiscus, Helianthus, tall Phloxes, Rudbeckia, and other perennials.
Can be used in perennial border, wild garden, meadows, naturalistic gardens or naturalized area. 'Fireworks' is also planted in famous Lurie Garden in Chicago.
Pot Size : square 3.5" x 5" deep pot
