Description

Golden ragwort (Packera aurea) is a beautiful, bright yellow-flowered perennial native to eastern North America. It's also known by a variety of other names, including golden groundsel, squaw weed, life root, and uncum root.

Golden ragwort grows in moist to mesic woodlands, meadows, and along streams. It typically reaches a height of 1-3 feet, with clusters of bright yellow daisy-like flowers blooming in early spring. The leaves are deeply lobed and dark green, providing a nice contrast to the cheerful flowers.

Golden ragwort is a valuable plant for attracting pollinators, such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. It's also deer-resistant and relatively easy to care for, making it a popular choice for gardeners.
