Solidago

Sounds like it could be a town in TX, conjuring up visions of sand and saguaro cactus. But it’s not. Solidago is a tall spiky plant with sparkling yellow plumes. You may know it better as Goldenrod. It is a beautiful harbinger of fall. I love to gather up a bunch and bring them in for a bright splash of color in my kitchen. Any maybe, just maybe, I’ll think of a little town in the desert as I put my Solidago in a vase…..

I actually have a huge bunch of them on my kitchen table in one of my old porcelain coffee pots!

Man, I was thinking it was a new blend of coffee...

Look up at the sky. Ask yourself, "Has the sheep eaten the flower or not?" And you'll see how everything changes.
