'Balvinwite' yarrow (Achillea millefolium 'Balvinwite') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, rock gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to wet, sandy or loamy soil. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It grows fast to about 15 inches tall and blooms from early to late summer.
