<p>[quote user="crhostler61"]</p> <p>That looks a bit like the goldenrod I used for trees when I lived in PA. The stuff was plentiful around the edges of marshy areas and near stream beds. </p> <p>Mark H</p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Mark, I think you have hit on it. I will know for sure when I go to the spot to pick more.</p> <p>My friend got it along a little lake here on the southern west coast of British Columbia, at elevation of about 700 feet. I see from the web that the fresh product is not similar, but a picture of dried Canada Goldenrod looks like this below <em>(Solidago Canadensis</em>). Trimmed and sprayed green could be the same as the one brought to me.</p> <p>The photo was taken in Nebraska so I am sure that the species grows throughout much of the US....as well as other varieties of goldenrod. More info after the weekend.</p> <p><img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u172/dcrane_2007/driedsoldensiscanadianensis_zps8dd483ef.jpg" alt=" " /></p> <p> </p> <p>My gift tree, again.</p> <p> </p> <p><img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u172/dcrane_2007/bestsingle-1000_zps1706cf13.jpg" alt=" " /></p>
