Noted for its striking floral display, Oligoneuron album (White Goldenrod) is a compact and low-growing perennial forming an open dome of flat-topped clusters bearing white daisy flowers with yellow disk centers. Blooming from midsummer to fall, the dainty blossoms are nectar rich and great for butterflies and pollinators while birds feast on the seeds. They are borne atop sturdy stems covered in fine hairs and rise above the basal foliage of shiny dark-green, narrow and willow-like leaves, 6 in. long (15 cm). Easy to grow, adapted to difficult growing conditions, Prairie Goldenrod is suitable for perennial borders or rock gardens where it brings cheerful late season color.
