Flower Friday...Goldenrod

It's the season for goldenrod, Solidago,  and there is plenty of it to be seen around the hedgerows here.  A non native, it can be very invasive though, and I have recently removed some growing in my garden. I think it qualifies for the wildflower challenge, so thanks Miranda and Bikerbear:)
A good afternoon at Bfriend, lots of laughs, and a summertime quiz.  Who knew the Pope's summer residence was called Castel Gandolfo!
