Solidago latissimifolia, the coastal goldenrod, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Asteraceae native to coastal wetland and marsh habitats of eastern Canada, including Nova Scotia and adjacent Maritime provinces, where it grows in brackish and freshwater tidal marshes, coastal meadows, and damp low-lying grasslands adjacent to the sea. The genus Solidago, the goldenrods, comprises approximately 100 species native predominantly to North America, with a handful of Eurasian species, and all are characterized by the golden-yellow flower heads produced in elongated or branched panicles during late summer and autumn. Coastal goldenrod is distinguished from related species by its broader, clasping leaves, a feature captured in the specific epithet latissimifolia. The flower heads attract abundant pollinators including bees, wasps, flies, and butterflies during late-season flowering, making goldenrods ecologically important components of late-summer pollinator habitat. Seeds are equipped with a pappus of fine bristles enabling wind dispersal. The species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. Coastal meadow and tidal marsh habitats in Maritime Canada face threats from sea-level rise, storm surge intensification, and coastal development, though the species persists in protected areas along the Atlantic seaboard.
