This is one of those plants I think if marketed right it could be a popular one. The way the leaves hold water and how long the flowers last. It really is a beautiful and beneficial plant for nature. I feel guilty whenever I have to kill one when weeding my garden.
I am going to check and see if I have this one. Tha KS foe the warning about not letting g it take over. I mistakingly planted Canadian goldenrod. I'm trying to control it now.
Oh dear, I know I have started these. My soil is dry in the summer so maybe it will be ok. I didn't know they would be so aggressive. Thanks for the video.
@sannaericditsler4034 If the are in a dry area, you shouldn't have a big problem. It will help if you cut them back before they go to seed. I usually leave about 18" of stem for hibernating insects. Thanks for your comment.

Do pollinators winter in the stems?
@SMElder-iy6fl Yes they do. I usually cut mine back leaving about 18" of stem. Thanks for your comment.
