Golden Rod is blooming here now and a good herb to talk about.
Solidago is a perannal with leafy erect stalks with bright yellow blooms from late summer to fall. The leaves make a pleasant tea taken for coughs and colds and is a diuritic. Leaves and flowers also make a yellow dye. Individuals allergic to plants in the composite family should'nt drink this tea.
Native Americans used the roots for burns;flower tea for fevers,snakebites;crushed flowers for sore throat. Seeds used for survival food. Native Americans usually used most herbs in compound receipes with other herbs.
