The Native Plant Store can Now be Found Here

  • This page will remain accessible as a library page until I have all the species moved to the new page and all the quirks worked out in the new software so it can function as a searchable library.
  • Please see the Using the Plant Library  page  for some tips on how to make the most of the information in this existing library to select species for creating a healthy native plant community suited to the conditions of your site.

Solidago squarrosa, Stout Goldenrod

Solidago squarrosa

Stout Goldenrod

New to me in 2022 this year, these seeds were given to me from someone who wild collected them here in the Ottawa area.

There is limited information available about their growing condition preferences, so I'll try planting them in a few places to see what they prefer. Height seems to range from 3' to 5' and they have a lovely, upright form.

While it rarely comes up, I do reserve the right to limit plant quantities, mostly to help ensure that as many native plant gardens as possible become a reality
