Golden Alexanders is a 2' to 3' tall native perennial that prefers wet sites and full sun, but will tolerate dry sites and partial shade. It is usually found growing in moist fields, prairies, and open woodlands. Golden Alexanders is a spring flowering plant that features broad compound umbels of tiny bright yellow 5-petaled flowers. Golden Alexander is a valuable component in conservation seed mixes, wildflower gardens, and wildlife habitat plantings.
