Solidago rugosa aka Wrinkleleaf Goldenrod

Solidago rugosa, commonly known as the wrinkleleaf goldenrod or rough-stemmed goldenrod, is a non-invasive, clump-forming species of flowering plant in the Asteraceae family. Native to North America, it is widespread across eastern and central Canada, from Newfoundland to Ontario, as well as the eastern and central United States, ranging from Maine to Wisconsin and Iowa, and south to Florida and Texas. This plant thrives in wet to mesic habitats and blooms from late summer to autumn, displaying sprays of tiny yellow flowers held on finer wands compared to its densely-flowered relatives. As a houseplant, the wrinkleleaf goldenrod is super rare but easy to grow. It requires regular watering for optimal growth and does best in long-lasting, direct light, ideally placed less than 1 foot away from a window. Well-draining soil is preferred, and repotting when it doubles in size eliminates the need for additional fertilizers. Belonging to the Solidago genus, this species is indigenous to Eastern Canada and the United States.
