Description
A stunning variety mix that is a combination of mixed berry shades that creates a tapestry of colour non-stop throughout the summer months. The sweet-scented foliage and flat flower heads of the Achillea variety are perfect for creating your own cottage garden schemes or adding to fresh cut flowers. This hardy perennial low maintenance plant adored by bees, butterflies, and any other pollinating insects. Height and spread: 60cm (24in). Culinary note: The leaves of the yarrow can be used cooked or raw. They have a bitter flavour but are good in mixed salads and best used when young. They may also be used as a preservative or flavouring for beer. The flowers and leaves can be made into an aromatic tea. Plant out Achillea plants into any well-drained soil in full sun. Achillea plants dislike wet ground, particularly during winter. Improve heavy soil conditions by adding coarse grit or sharp sand prior to planting. Once established, Yarrow is reasonably drought tolerant and requires little maintenance. In summer, stake the tall flower stems with garden canes to prevent them drooping and leave faded flower heads intact at the end of summer to enjoy an attractive autumn seed head display. When the first frosts blacken the stems, cut them down to ground level. Lift and divide overcrowded clumps of yarrow in spring. Caution: irritant to skin and eyes.
