- Goldenrod is a common name for many species of flowering plants in the sunflower family, Asteraceae, commonly in reference to the genus Solidago. Several genera, such as Euthamia, were formerly included in a broader concept of the genus Solidago. Some authors treat Oligoneuron, the flat-topped goldenrods, as a separate genus than Solidago, while others consider it a section: Solidago sect. Ptarmicoidei. Goldenrods can be used as a sustainable method to enrich soil with nitrogen. With an increase of nitrogen levels, there can then be an increase of vegetative growth. Plants known as goldenrods include:
* Bigelowia spp., rayless goldenrods, 2 species native to the Southeastern United States
* Cuniculotinus gramineus, Panamint rock goldenrod
* Euthamia spp., flat-topped goldenrods or grass-leaved goldenrods, 5 species native to North America
* Gundlachia triantha, Trans-Pecos desert goldenrod
* , small-headed heath goldenrod
* , Texas desert goldenrod
* Petradoria pumila, rock goldenrod
* Solidago spp., goldenrods, around 120 species native to the Americas, northern Africa, Europe, Asia (en)
