Great Valley Gumweed (Grindelia robusta) organic

substance.

The Great Valley gumweed is also only little known as a flower for the shrub garden. It is a very beautiful, perennial shrub which really blooms consistently from the end of May to October. As a member of the composite family, the plant has very large, bright yellow blossoms, which constitutes a very good source for nectar and pollen for bees, butterflies and other insects. Who wants to do something for the insects, should integrate the Great Valley gumweed into their garden.

The little attractive name 'gumweed', by the way, goes back to the fact that the buds are coated with sticky resin. Thereby, it is well-protected against dehydration. It also especially loves dry locations and can be used very well for a stone garden. Waterlogging is probably the only thing that could get dangerous for this robust plant. Furthermore, a strong wind can be dangerous because its stems fold over easily.
