Golden





Goldenrod

I am glad I looked this up.  I have always thought this was Ragweed.

these are so pretty and I have not seen any goldenrod in many years. when i first got married in 1963, i picked this beauty and stood them in vases in our tiny apartment. i had no idea what an allergy was or that the new husband had allergies... boy was there a lot of sneezing going on

I can't wait for the goldenrod to come back; I think they're so pretty. Beautifully photographed Amy! I especially love the second one bordered by the white weeds (Queen Anne's lace?) and the fall colors in the background.

Beautiful photos. Lots of both around here and I love it's bright gold in the landscape.

Goldenrod is the State Flower of Nebraska and you captured it beautifully, Amy!

Robyn stole my thunder. Lol. Thankfully, ragweed is not the state flower of Nebraska. :)

I didn't know that either! Looking fallish in your photos.

Very nice images of goldenrod...I seldom see it that I don't think of Helen Hunt Jackson's poem that starts out with 'The goldenrod is yellow,
the corn is turning brown, the trees in apple orchard with fruit are bending down...."
