Hardy herbaceous perennials, most Achillea form aromatic, soft, feathery, fern-like foliage with clusters of small daisy-like flowers. Tolerant of hot, humid summers, drought, and most growing conditions; plant Achillea, or yarrow, in well-drained soil and full sun.
With a little maintenance, blooms are possible throughout summer in cottage gardens, wild gardens, meadows, prairies and naturalized areas. Common yarrow is often used as a flowering ground cover or lawn for sunny out-of-the-way areas, and sometimes mowed with a rotary mower (use highest setting). Achilleas make excellent dried flowers.
Yarrow is one of the easiest perennials to grow and is a good choice for beginners. More yarrow common names, include milfoil, thousandleaf, soldier's woundwort, bloodwort, nose bleed, devil's nettle, sanguinary, old-man's-pepper and stenchgrass.
