Its drought tolerance and low-maintenance nature also make it a reliable choice for borders and cottage gardens.

Planting & Care

Sow White Yarrow seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors in early spring or fall. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 14–21 days at 65–70°F (18–21°C). Once seedlings have several true leaves, thin or transplant them to 18–24 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil.

Water regularly during the first growing season to help plants establish. Once established, yarrow is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued bloom, or leave seed heads for winter interest and bird food. Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigor.
