goldenrod

Goldenrod (Solidago 'Leraft') requires moderate watering intervals and should not be allowed to dry out completely between waterings. Watering should be done twice a week during the summertime or area with higher temperatures, and once a week during the winter months. Before watering, check the soil to ensure it is adequately moist, not overly wet. To help maintain proper moisture levels for the plant, consider using a self-watering container or adding mulch to the top of the soil. Always water at the base of the plant, avoiding the leaves as much as possible. During the warmer months, it is recommended to fertilize the royalty twice a month with a balanced organic fertilizer.

Goldenrod (Solidago 'Leraft') prefers full sun for at least 6-8 hours per day. This will provide the best results when it comes to flowers, foliage, and overall health. It’s best to give your Goldenrod as much sunlight as possible throughout the day. It is also important to note that you want to avoid deep shade as this may stunt the growth of your plant or cause it to be less healthy overall.

Goldenrod (Solidago 'Leraft') should be pruned once per year in late autumn or early spring. Prune back the previous season’s growth to approximately 1 third its original size. Cut back the stems just above a leaf node or a set of leaves. This process will encourage the plant to produce more compact growth in the upcoming season, and also promote better air circulation around the leaves. Dead and damaged stems should be pruned out from the crown of the plant to improve its overall appearance.
