goldenrod

Goldenrod (Solidago 'Goldkind' GOLDEN BABY) is a low-maintenance perennial that thrives in sunny locations with well-draining soil. Watering should be done once a week when the soil feels dry to the touch and after fertilizing. Make sure the soil isn’t saturated—it should simply be moist. When watering, drench the soil and then let it dry out again. During hot weather, you may need to water twice a week. Avoid getting the leaves of the plants wet. If the leaves remain wet after watering, the plant’s leaves may become subject to fungal diseases.

Goldenrod (Solidago 'Goldkind' GOLDEN BABY) will thrive best in full sun for at least 6-8 hours per day. It is best to give it consistent light throughout the day. This variety will tolerate partial shade but is not desirable for its growth and flowering. For this plant species, optimal sunlight should be around 10am - 5pm.

Goldenrod (Solidago 'Goldkind' GOLDEN BABY) should be pruned back in late winter or early spring when new growth appears. Prune back a third to half of last year's growth to promote healthy growth and fullness. Remove any dead or weak branches and stems to encourage new growth. If your Goldenrod is getting too large, selectively thin out some of the center stems to promote air circulation and allow more light to reach the inner branches.
