watering
Goldenrod (Solidago 'Peter Pan') should be watered once or twice a week. Apply the water to the soil and let the excess run off. Give the plant about 1 to 2 inches of water each time you water. Try not to water too much or too little. Be sure to check the soil regularly so that it is damp but not wet, and water accordingly. During the summer, the plant may need additional water. Additionally, mist the foliage with a spray bottle often to help keep its bright yellow flowers vibrant.
sunlight
Goldenrod (Solidago 'Peter Pan') thrives in full sun and prefers a minimum of 6 hours of direct sunlight each day; however, 8 hours of sun is ideal. It also tends to perform well in partial shade, especially in hot climates. It should be placed in a location where it is exposed to bright sunshine all morning and afternoon but can escape the hottest mid-day sun. Remember that afternoon sun may be more intense than morning sun, so be vigilant about how your goldenrod is exposed to the blazing heat.
pruning
Goldenrod ‘Peter Pan’ should be pruned once a year in the late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Pruning should be done to remove any dead or diseased branches and to maintain a neat, compact shape. Avoid over-pruning, as this may lead to a reduction in flowering and foliage. In addition, avoid pruning in late summer or early fall, as this could lead to new growth appearing too late in the season, before temperatures drop, and could damage the plant.
