Cerise Queen yarrow has deep pink flowers that bloom May to July. Foliage is green, fern-like, and aromatic. Grows about 18 to 30 inches tall, including flowers. Butterflies, bees, and birds love yarrow.
Many different cultivars of Yarrow are available, with different flower colors, including yellows, reds, peaches, and pinks. Yarrow makes a good ground cover when mowed, and tolerates a fair amount of foot traffic. Divide in the spring every few years as the centers can sometimes melt out. Grow in full sun to part shade in well drained soils. Tolerates clay soils. Yarrows are best not planted next to slower-growing and smaller perennials, as they may overtake and overwhelm them.
