Yarrow

An original wild perennial with a large distribution area from Europe to Siberia. Suitable for natural and wild plantings. It grows in meadows and dry grassy places. A very adaptable and undemanding plant, it grows in clumps and spreads by runners. Cutting back after the first bloom will encourage a flush of new flowers. We harvest them for bouquets when the florets are fully open. They last 10 days in a vase. 'Cerise Queen' has deep pink to purplish-pink flowers, gradually fading to light pink.

For drying, we harvest it when the entire flower head is nicely colored yellow. Just hang them upside down, in a dry and ventilated place, out of sunlight.

Yarrow belongs to our best-selling cut flowers. Everyone loves it! Cassis is a shade of deep pink. Yarrow is a perennial and spreads beautifully from year to year, so plant with sufficient spacing.
