Goldenrods are a powerhouse plant when it comes to pollinators! Goldenrod is an important nectar and seed source for butterflies and small birds in fall when many other plants have finished blooming.

Note: goldenrod does NOT cause hayfever! Ragweed is to blame for that. The pollen of goldenrod is large and sticky so that it adheres to visiting insects. That means it doesn’t become airborne, and won’t travel into your sinuses. Ragweed has lightweight pollen that is easily airborne.
