Reliable color from early summer well into fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse in the Landscape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA pastel, low-maintenance choice for borders, rock gardens, or naturalized plantings. It holds up well in hot, dry spots where less rugged perennials struggle. Excellent for a calming color palette in your garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse as a Cut Flower\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA long-lasting, cut flower - the flat clusters work beautifully fresh or dried, and the mixed pastel berry tones give arrangements a soft and romantic palette. Harvest once most of the florets in a cluster are open and pollen is visible; picked too early, blooms tend to wilt instead of holding. Yarrow also dries excellently and can be used as an everlasting in the off season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Conditions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Average to lean, dry to medium moisture, well-drained; tolerates poor soil well\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIrrigation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low once established; drought tolerant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20–30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpread:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20–30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early summer through fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foliage is aromatic when crushed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdible:\u003c\/strong\u003e A common ingredient in tea!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOngoing Care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeadhead spent blooms to extend flowering and cut back to basal foliage after the first flush for a possible rebloom later in the season. Divide clumps every 2–3 years to maintain vigor. Avoid rich, overly moist soil, which causes floppy growth — lean soil actually keeps plants sturdier. Good air circulation helps avoid stem rot and powdery mildew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFun Facts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike other yarrows, 'Summer Berries' carries the genus name Achillea from the Greek hero Achilles, who reportedly used the plant to treat battle wounds. Unlike the wild species, colors on this cultivar won't fade — plants can show several different bloom shades even within one cluster.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wild Grit Farm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47016592539820,"sku":null,"price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.wild-grit.com\/products\/achillea-millefolium-yarrow-summer-berries","provider":"Wild Grit Garden Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
