When to plant showy goldenrod

Showy goldenrod is a perennial that blooms in fall (August to October) and may need dividing every couple of years to manage its size (NC State). The page gives no explicit planting date, so a spring band is approximate.

Showy Goldenrod is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
