Achillea millefolium ‘Summer Pastels’
Plant number: 1.010.250
Yarrow is an easy perennial, growing in nearly any sunny situation, even where there is poor soil. Plants form low mounds of fragrant ferny foliage, with clusters of flowers appearing on upright stems in early summer. This strain gives a wide range of soft pastel shades, from white through to cream, yellow, pink, salmon, mauve and red. Good for cutting, fresh or dried. Remove spent flowers to promote more buds. Inclined to spread, so site this carefully or plan to reduce the clumps each spring. Easily divided in fall or early spring. Heat tolerant.
