Fairhope, I had planned to use goldenrod in my fall wedding more than 3 decades ago, but some of my bridesmaids said they were allergic to it. Now, I hear that ragweed, not goldenrod, is the allergy culprit!
Goldenrod is the state flower for Nebraska and we have a big patch of it growing in our side yard. Thank you for featuring your gorgeous photo of this pretty wildflower. :)

I love Goldenrod. It has a bad image due to allergies, but it's so pretty along the roadside.
