Canada Goldenrod, also called Rocky Mountain Goldenrod, is most likely found in dry and open meadows. Alas it is not a native of Cascadia Floristic Region as it was found originally in East a mid-West North America. An herb and a member of the Asteraceae Family, it grows by Kiosk 03. Pilchuck Learning Center’s sponsored Western Washington State University SAM Project extinction possibility is slight. We allow it to grow for its late summer beauty and the fact that it is abundant and provides the Gardens’ birds food. That said, it is an invasive exotic to Cascadia (even if carrying Canada’s good name).
