Oligoneuron riddellii

Riddell’s Goldenrod is one that will love full sun and not much less. It will also thrive with consistently damp roots making it a wonderful choice for a sunny rain garden. Dryer sites may be tolerated but result in a shorter less robust plant. Riddell’s Goldenrod will produce mounds of classic Goldenrod yellow flowers attracting a wide range of pollinators from bumblebees, wasps, bees, butterflies and more.

Riddell’s Goldenrod is a wonderful late season bloomer to support our pollinators and feed migrators songbirds with a bounty of seeds later in the season.

The Solidago species are a keystone species and valuable host plants for over 100 species of moths and caterpillars, as well as providing pollen and nectar for approximately 30 species of specialist bees.
