Mixed Summer Yarrow Seeds — 500 Seeds
Add flat-topped flower clusters and finely divided foliage to a sunny border with mixed-color Achillea millefolium. Yarrow is a perennial choice for informal beds and fresh or dried arrangements, with reduced watering needs once established in a suitable site.
Why Choose Mixed Summer Yarrow?
- A mixed-color planting rather than a single uniform flower shade.
- Flowers that provide a landing place for visiting pollinators.
- An established perennial for well-drained, sunny garden areas.

Growing Profile
Growing zone: Generally USDA 3–9. Light: Full sun is best; partial shade can produce weaker growth. Height: Approximately 12–36 inches, depending on the seedling and conditions. Spacing: About 18–24 inches. Soil: Well drained; avoid persistently wet sites and excessive fertilizer. Bloom: Primarily summer, with timing affected by sowing date and climate.
Planting Instructions
- Start in trays about 8–10 weeks before planting outdoors, or direct sow into a fine seedbed in suitable conditions.
- Press the tiny seeds onto moist mix. Light helps germination: do not bury them under a thick layer of soil. A very thin layer of vermiculite can help retain moisture.
- Keep around 65–72°F and mist gently or bottom-water. Germination commonly begins in roughly 10–14 days, but can be uneven.
- Give seedlings bright light and airflow. Harden off before transplanting.
- Water while roots establish. Once established, let the soil drain between waterings and remove spent flowers to limit self-seeding.
FAQs
Will every plant have the same color?
No. This is a seed-grown mix, so color, height and flowering time vary.
Should I cover the seeds?
Only very lightly, if at all. A heavy soil covering blocks the light needed for good germination.
Does yarrow return each year?
It is generally perennial in USDA zones 3–9 where drainage and local conditions are suitable.
Will it flower the first year?
Early-started plants may flower in their first season, but timing is not guaranteed.
Does yarrow spread?
Yes. It can spread through underground growth and self-seeding. Give it a defined area and divide or remove unwanted growth.
Is it suitable around pets?
Keep pets from eating yarrow. This listing is for ornamental cultivation, not for food, herbal treatment or animal feed.
