Notes: It is hard to overstate the benefit of the goldenrods in the landscape. The sheer number of species they benefit outweighs any other species. Zig-Zag goldenrod performs best in part to full shade in all but the wettest or driest soils. It benefits many pollinators and birds. It is deer resistant.
