FAC
At 3-4' tall, more compact than most of the species; flowers more heavily. A lacy dome of golden flowers looks like exploding fireworks providing nectar and pollen for bees and butterflies in early fall. Grows best in a sunny, moist, well-drained site. This cultivar tolerates moister soils than many of the other goldenrods.
