Solidago 'Hiddigeigei', Goldenrod

Solidago 'Hiddigeigei' offers multi-season interest with bright chartreuse foliage in spring as well as the usual late summer bright yellow flowers. Found as a lucky seedling and introduced by Christian Kress of Sarastro Nursery. This is a sterile cultivar, so for better or worse, you will not have it spread in your garden.  The chartreuse spring foliage will last longer in temperate climates and is significantly shorter-lived in a pot. 

Consider pairing with purple-foliaged Heliopsis helianthoides for a contrasting, colorful spring foliage followed by blooms all summer. 

Prefers regular summer watering. 

Mature size: 2 ft T x 1-2 ft W

Minimum temperature: -20° F
