Wrinkleleaf Goldenrod

Happy Sunday! Goldenrod has apparently many guises, this being only one. They all share this lovely rich deep yellow colour with relatively small flowers, often bunched together in various ways on stems of varying lengths. (I hope you will excuse my highly scientific description.) The unopened buds on this one are a little reminiscent of tiny mimosa flowers in shape. I don’t remember even seeing this variety before, which is probably simply that I have not taken the time to study them next to their other relatives. Next year I will try to make more of an effort, when they come back to our roadsides. As I write this it is very grey and dull out my window, so I needed a bright pick-me-up and this fits the bill for me. I hope you have a good day, all of you.
