Some months ago I noticed a new plant growing beside the cluster of plants by the patio outside of my office. I loved the leaves of this mystery plant and wondered what kind of plant it was.
Then finally the plant grew golden yellow tops that look sort of like mini Christmas trees flocked in golden yellow. Now I was even more curious to know the identity of this plant.
And believe it or not, just days later, I got my answer. As I was reading the Houston, Texas newspaper, I spotted a picture with a couple of different types of plants.
The picture was in an article about gardening. Looking at the picture I was drawn to the plant in the background. “That looks like the plant growing by my patio!” I said to myself. I was excited! Underneath the picture the caption told me that the plant in the background was goldenrod.
You may disagree, but
