Solidago rugosa, the wrinkleleaf goldenrod[3] or rough-stemmed goldenrod,[4] is a North American species of flowering plants in the sunflower family. It is widespread across eastern and central Canada (from Newfoundland to Ontario) and the eastern and central United States (Maine west as far as Wisconsin and Iowa, south to Florida and Texas).[5]
