Goldenrod


I love this Plant....this time of year it is everywhere. 
So many of our so called "Weeds" are unappreciated.
It is fascinating to read up on our native plants and their long forgotten beneficial uses  .

Ah, thank you. There's a few bushes in my backyard and I was trying to remember what it was called. Goldenrod is the perfect name for it.

I find some weeds are prettier than flowers, not to mention some I think of as flowers only to find out they are weeds..go figure....:-)Hugs

Goldenrod sure is pretty. I wonder if we have anything like it here. I've never seen it, I think.
