Solidago curtisii is a North American species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It is found in the eastern part of the United States from Pennsylvania to Mississippi and Alabama, primarily in the southern Appalachian Mountains. It is a perennial herb sometimes as much as 100 cm (40 inches) tall, with a thick, woody underground caudex and a narrow, wiry, and dark purple stem. It produces up to 800 small yellow flower heads in small clumps in the axils of the leaves. There are two varieties: Solidago curtisii var. curtisii, which is found in high elevations in mountains from Georgia to West Virginia, and Solidago curtisii var. flaccidifolia, which is found in lower elevations from Mississippi to Pennsylvania. It is also host to the insect induced gall Asteromyia carbonifera.
