Notes

'Pretty Belinda' yarrow (Achillea millefolium 'Pretty Belinda') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to wet, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It blooms in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, and butterflies and bees visit the fragrant flowers. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It also tolerates drought and salt.

Pairs well with Dense blazing star, Blue grama, and Blanket flower.
