Kalyn Naylor Science Discovery 9-15-2014



My science discovery is on Goldenrod. Its scientific name is Solidago. It's a genus of about 100-120 species of flowering plants. It's family is Asteraceae. They are found in open areas like meadows, prairies, and savannas. They are mostly native to North America, but a few species are native to Mexico, South America, and Eurasia.
