Description: Red Yarrow Achillea millefolium rubra Flower Herb Seeds Red Yarrow has finely divided, fern-like leaves and a pungent scent. Flowers are dark pink to deep carmine and occur in flat-topped flower clusters. Attracts beneficial insects. This species has rhizomes and can spread aggressively in home gardens or where soils are moist. To contain rhizomes, grow plants in 5 or 10 gallon plastic pots that have been partially buried in the ground. Sowing: Direct sow the seed in fall or early spring; fall planted seed will remain dormant until spring. To start the seeds indoors, plant them just below the surface of the soil since they need light to germinate. Keep the soil temperature at 65-75 degrees F, but out of the hottest rays of sunlight. Growing: While the young plants should be watered to help them establish a deep root system, too much watering of mature plants can cause stem and root rot or mildew. This species grows best in sandy or well drained soil, and tolerates drought conditions. Since yarrow tends to flop over in fertile soil or shade, staking may be needed; this also protects the plant's fragile stems in high winds. Deadhead the wilted blossoms often for continued blooming. After the plant has finished blooming, cut the plant down to its lower leaves for healthy spring growth. When the plant becomes 3-4 years old, it will benefit from being dug up and divided in the early spring or fall. Because yarrow can become invasive through the spread of roots and its reseeding habit, care should be taken to control the spread of the plant. This can be done by putting a barrier underground surrounding the plant's roots, or by growing the plant in large container. This plant attracts butterflies and beneficial insects as well as repelling deer and rabbits, and grows well in borders or large containers. As a companion plant with herbs, it increases their fragrance, flavor, and essential oils. SHIPPING INFO*********** Tracking is only available for all orders $14 and above.

Our seeds are fresh all year round and they come from the number one seed grower an supplier in the united states so when you try to say not one seed grew then either your a liar, do not know how to grow or the weather or something played a part in them not growing but IT IS NOT the seeds. Seeds are tested every 60 days for germination so from now on anyone that tries to lie to us and say not one seed grew and leaves nasty feedback that is not true will be banned for life from buying from us in any of our stores. We have been in the seed business for 21 years, not just on this new account so do not think for a minute we are not professional growers ourselves. If someone buys 250 seeds and says not one grew that is an impossibility and your a liar. We will not tolerate liars or those trying to intentionally hurting one's business. You have been warned. Due to having too many issues with the following states, California, Oregon, Washington and New York there is now no free shipping for those states. There is a $5.00 shipping cost.
