Goldenrod - Goldrush The Solidago Goldrush, 'Solidago cutleri 'Goldrush', a Blooms of Bressingham plant, will provide a long season display of dazzling golden flowers.

Goldrush comes into the fall with masses of yellow flower clusters that almost block out the foliage for about a month. The Solidgao Goldrush should be planted in full sun and at the front of beds and borders or in containers. Goldrush exhibits a uniform, compact mound of tiny yellow flowers. |
