  • Description

  • Notes

This diminutive species is one of the most rugged and xeric of the yarrows. The slow-growing plants gradually form low, tight, gray mats of narrow evergreen leaves. The white flowers are numerous and very attractive. Easily grown in any well-drained soil, Serbian Yarrow is excellent for hot, dry south and west facing slopes. Plant with lavender and Pineleaf Penstemon for a lovely, low-water vignette. Grows about 4 inches tall and 15 inches wide. Evergreen.
