Grass-leaved Goldenrod (Euthamia graminifolia) is a seasonal plant with yellow blooms from late summer into fall and good fall interest. They prefer moist soil in full sun where they grow up to 3 feet tall, making them a good choice for slopes and basins. Companion plants include Palm Sedge (Carex muskigemensis) and Arkansas Bluestar (Amsonia hubrichtii).
Maintenance
Plants may spread aggressively by rhizome and self-seeding. Deadheading in late summer can mitigate some spread. Many insects feed on the foliage, which can cause aesthetic issues.
