Solidago virgaurea minuta

A very dwarf form of our native Golden Rod, this grows as mounds of dark green leaves with heads of golden flowers in late summer. About 7 to 10cm (3" to 4") tall.

Easily grown in most soils and good for adding a bit of late season colour to the rock garden or rockery. A very tough, hardy and neat little plant with a dainty charm. A good choice for a scree or gravel garden as it roots deeply and so resists drought.
