Achillea (Yarrow)
Color Name: Sassy Summer Sangria
Achillea Sassy Summer Sangria is one of the tallest Yarrow in our collection. Standing up to 36 inches tall and spreading up to 42 inches wide, Sassy Summer Sangria has a very sturdy upright habit. The silvery green foliage compliments the deep red flowers with white eyes.
Planted in full sun locations, yarrow are a drought tolerant perennial that thrives in average to dry soil locations once established. Deer and rabbit resistant, Sassy Summer Sangria attracts butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden. This fast growing, easy to grow perennial is stunning in the garden as well as in the home as a cut or dried flower.
You'll love this collection of Yarrow due to each member's taller, more substantial presence than other Achillea on the market. Although they have a taller height, all members have sturdy flower stems that will look great throughout the season of its bloom. With a range of beautiful colors, such as yellow, red, pink, and orange, you'll definitely find something that fits your needs.
Growing Tips: Yarrow is one of the easiest perennials to grow and is a good choice for beginners. All it needs is full sun and well-drained soil. It thrives in average to poor soil and is drought tolerant once established. Plants grown in rich soil tend to be tall and floppy. After the flowers have faded, cut the plant back by half. This will likely stimulate a second flush of blooms in late summer. Most varieties do not come true from seed.
