Description
A description of Solidago fistulosa is provided in The Flora of North America.
Distribution
Found in the Coastal Plain from Louisiana to New Jersey, however, is primarily concentrated in the southeast coastal plain[1].
Ecology
Habitat
In the Coastal Plain in Florida and Georgia, S. fistulosa has occurred in wet hammocks, cabbage palm-slash pine hammocks, slash pine woodlands, lake margins, open ditches bordering swamps, shores of cypress ponds, thickets bordering cypress-gum depressions, floodplain woodlands, a Cladium brackish marsh, dried out cypress depressions, and marshy areas. It also has been found in disturbed areas such as roadside depressions, black sandy peat of a logged over hillside bog, clear-cut sand pine scrub ridge, old pastures, and a drainage ditch bordering pine flatwoods (FSU Herbarium). Soils include loamy sand, sandy loam, sandy peat, and clay (FSU Herbarium). Associated species include Euthamia minor, Eupatorium, Xyris, Rhynchospora fascicularis and Hypericum cistifolium (FSU Herbarium).

Flowers in September through October and fruits in October (FSU Herbarium).
Seed dispersal
Seed bank and germination
Fire ecology
S. fistulosa has been observed growing in a recently burned pineland bay forest and an annually burned pine forest (FSU Herbarium).
