Ericameria resinosa, the Columbia goldenweed,[3] or Columbia goldenbush,[4] is a North American species of flowering shrubs in the family Asteraceae. It is native to the northwestern part of the United States, in the states of Washington (state) , Oregon, and Idaho.[5][6]

Ericameria resinosa is a shrub up to 50 cm (20 inches) tall. It has thread-like or narrowly oblanceolate leaves up to 25 mm (1 inch) long, with resinous glands on the surface.
