Notes

'Snow Sport' yarrow (Achillea 'Snow Sport') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, and naturalized areas. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy soil. Butterflies and birds visit it, and it tolerates drought. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Blooms appear in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn.

Pairs well with Pale purple coneflower, Blonde Ambition blue grama, Knapweed, and Limeglow creeping juniper.
