#ProPlantTips for Care:
Yarrow is a hardy herbaceous perennial and should be planted in full sun and is tolerant to hot humid summers. Yarrow can tolerate poor soil conditions but does best in lean, dry to medium wet, well-drained soil. They can be adaptable to almost any soil with adequate drainage. New plants should be watered regularly and not allowed to dry out completely.
Deep waterings are better than frequent surface waterings, encouraging the roots to delve deep into the ground for moisture, and making them more resilient in the long run. Top-dress with a 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch to not only make them look better but also hold moisture and insulate the roots best. Once established, allow your Yarrow to dry between waterings for best success because they despise soggy soil.
It's recommended to remove faded flowers to encourage more growth and divide the mounds every 3-4 years. Deadheading enhances their overall appearance and encourages the plants to rebloom. In spring, before you see new growth, trim away any of last year's stems to clean up the crown. Top off with a fresh layer of mulch or compost!
- Full Sun Perennial Plants
- Moderate to Low Moisture Needs Once Established
