Golden Ragwort (Packera aurea) is an excellent groundcover, forming not only a mat of leaves but a thick colony of shorter yellow flowers. It can be a good plant choice for planting after buckthorn removal, because it will cover ground quickly. It might not be the most suitable choice for gardens where you don’t want a plant that spreads underground.
Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!
