Notes
'Desred' yarrow (Achillea millefolium 'Desred') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and cottage 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. Fragrant flowers open from early to late summer and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Blanket flower, Foxtail barley, and Lemon Chiffon peony.
