Solidago macrophylla, the largeleaf goldenrod[2] or large-leaved goldenrod,[3] is North American species of herbaceous perennial plants of the family Asteraceae. It is native to eastern and central Canada (from Ontario to Newfoundland & Labrador) and the north-eastern United States (New York and New England).[4][5] Some of the populations in Québec and Labrador lie north of the Arctic Circle.[6]
Solidago macrophylla is a perennial herb up to 105 cm (42 inches) tall, with a thick woody rhizome. Leaves can be up to 15 cm (6 inches) long. One plant can produce 110 or more small yellow flower heads, mostly on short side branches.[3]
