Wichita mountain goldenrod is an unidentified species originally collected from Oklahoma. Throughout the growing season, it is not that noticeable. But in early fall, it grows multiple upright, bottle brush-like spikes of vibrant yellow flowers.
This plant is very attractive to bees and butterflies. It is a beautiful fall bloomer that adds spectacular color right before the first fall frost.
Wichita mountain goldenrod has been a good late season perennial flower at the Xeriscape Garden. It is one of the latest blooming perennial flowers, and makes a nice complement to fall blooming asters. The bright yellow flowers are very attractive.
Cut old stems and leaves to ground level in late winter.
