Golden Horn
the harbor of Constantinople, an inlet of the Bosporus, so called from its shape and beauty.
GOLDENROD (Solidago), a genus of Compositæ, closely allied to aster. Only the common S. Virgaurea is British, a few others are European, but most (more than 100) belong to North America, where their bright coloring lightens up the autumn scenery. Some-e. g., S. canadensis, grandiflora, etc. are found in old-fashioned borders. S. Virgaurea had at one tim a great reputation as a vulnerary. The leaves of this and a fragrant North American species, S. odora, have been used as a substitute for tea.
