Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged until germination, which typically occurs in 14-21 days at 65-70°F (18-21°C). Thin seedlings to stand 18-24 inches apart when they are 2-3 inches tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce established, Red Yarrow thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help roots establish, then reduce watering as plants become drought tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued bloom, and divide clumps every 2-3 years to maintain vigor. Avoid overly rich soils, which can cause floppy growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e1000 Red Yarrow seeds (Achillea millefolium).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824724115766,"sku":"FOLIA2-1095","price":13.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6511364392_oqeq.jpg?v=1793004332","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/red-yarrow-seeds-1000-achillea-millefolium-hardy-perennial-wildflower","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
