Description

24" tall x 24-36" wide. An eye-catching Yarrow, 'Terracotta' has gray-green filigreed foliage and uniquely colored, earth-tone flowers that change from peach to coppery-orange and russet. This German-bred Yarrow is best grown in very lean, fast-draining soil to keep 'Terracotta' compact and non-floppy. This subtle beauty combines nicely with orange and yellow flowered perennials. A sterile variety. Salt Tolerant

Planting & Care

Tips On Growing Achillea (Yarrow)

Achillea (Yarrow) are long-blooming, Old World perennials that are exceptionally easy-to-grow and provide ample nectar for butterflies. They are resistant to browsing rabbits and deer. Most are tall, upright growers with the exception of evergreen Achillea ageratifolia (Greek yarrow) and Achillea millifolium
‘Sonoma Coast,' which are groundcovers.

Preferred growing conditions:

  • These perennials grow in most any type of soil including clay.
  • Should be mulched in dry climates with most any type of mulch materials including gravel in xeric plantings.
  • Only requires deep but infrequent watering after their second growing season. Too much water makes them floppy.
  • Plant in full, hot sun.
  • Adding just a few handfuls of compost and Yum Yum Mix in the planting hole is enough. Avoid planting into a rich, highly-amended soil; they don't need it and it can make them floppy.
