Yarrow : Achillea millefolium

Plant type: deciduous, perennial, herbaceous
Height: 1 - 2'

Light: full sun
Soil: moist to dry

Growth rate: fast
PPL: YES

A “dynamic accumulator”; it roots deep, pulling up nutrients to build soil fertility.

Tall and erect stems support compact clusters of tiny whitish flowers while lacy, fern-like leaves breeze below.

Saint and sinner approved, yarrow is sun and drought tolerant, making it a good option for open sky yards and hell strips. It also grows well in moist, filtered light and has a rich ethnobotanical history.
