Yarrow (Achillea Millefolium Summer Berries Mix) - What a cheery mix for the summer border! Grow this mix from Yarrow flower seed and enjoy colors of salmon, yellow, white, pink, cherry red, and cream. Summer Berries Yarrow is the most beautiful and long-lasting Yarrow, and it's splendid for fresh and dried arrangements plus long-lasting garden color that bees and butterflies love.
Yarrow is a perennial, native to the United States and is happy to thrive in those infertile, untended garden spots. This Achillea blooms in just 4 months after being planted from Yarrow flower seed, and it blooms through summer and fall especially if the spent flowers are deadheaded.
Sow Yarrow flower seed indoors 6 - 8 weeks before frost season ends. Use starter trays or small pots. Press Yarrow flower seed into the soil but do not cover. Light aids germination. Keep Yarrow seed moist until germination. Or, after frost danger has passed, directly sow Yarrow flower seeds outdoors in prepared soil. Press seed into the soil and space 16 inches apart.
