Habitat: Glades, barrens, and prairie-like areas, over mafic (such as diabase) or calcareous (such as calcareous shale) rocks, and in adjacent disturbed areas, such as roadbanks and powerline rights-of-way. Distribution: Sc. VA, se. TN, sc. OH, and e. MO south to c. SC, sw. GA, s. AL, MS, and e. TX.
Origin/Endemic status: Endemic
Taxonomy Comments: This taxon is apparently strictly diploid (2n=18); it seems to warrant specific rank, though it has been given varietal and subspecific rank.
Other Comments: This taxon (variously treated as a species, subspecies, or variety) is rare and scattered throughout its range, restricted to prairie-like, barren, or glade situations.

plant sale text: Southeastern stiff-leaved goldenrod is a sturdy upright perennial with golden yellow flat-topped flower clusters that are larger than most other species of goldenrods. This species is native to prairies, glades, and roadsides over calcareous rocks. The Solidago genus supports up to 112 lepidoptera species. People mistakenly believe that goldenrods cause allergies, however this is not true because their pollen is not wind-borne!
