Red Yarrow seed Achillea millefolium ‘Cerise Queen’

LATIN NAME: ACHILLEA MILLEFOLIUM

COMMON NAME: Red Yarrow, Cerise Queen Yarrow, Common Yarrow

The yarrow is a neat, tough, clumping perennial of the meadows and the gardens, and its fine, feathery, fern-like leaves and its flat-topped, dense heads of many small, deep-cerise or rose-pink flowers have made it a valued plant of the border and the wild garden. It grows as a clumping perennial, reaching up to one metre or more, with upright, leafy, branching stems bearing fine, feathery, deeply divided, aromatic leaves and, through the summer, flat-topped, dense heads of many small, deep-cerise or rose-pink, daisy-like flowers, followed by small, dry heads of fine seeds. It is a species of the flowering plant in the daisy family, native to Europe and temperate Asia, while it is grown as a fine garden plant, and this ‘Cerise Queen’ strain is prized for its rich, deep-cerise bloom.

Scientific Research & Plant Biotechnology

The yarrow has a real and distinguished place in research. It has been studied in horticulture, since its fine, feathery, fern-like leaves and its flat-topped heads of many small flowers have made it a valued plant of the border, and researchers have examined its growth, its flowering and its many fine cultivars, while its long, dependable bloom has drawn attention in the international horticultural press. The plant has also been studied in botany and ecology, since it is a native of the meadows of Europe and temperate Asia, and its relationships, its distribution and its role in the wild have been examined, while the ecology of the meadow plants has been of continuing interest. The species has also been studied in the chemistry of natural products and traditional use, since the aerial parts of the yarrow have a long history of use in the folk ways of many lands, and researchers have examined the plant and its constituents, while the traditional uses of the yarrow have been of continuing interest, and the plant is best appreciated as a subject of study and a fine garden plant rather than a casual remedy. For a plant of such quiet value, the yarrow has a rich and continuing record of study.

Ecological & Economic Value & Wide Applications

To grow the Red Yarrow from seed, ecologically, the yarrow is a generous plant of the garden. Its flat-topped heads of many small flowers feed the bees and the many insects, and its fine, feathery foliage gives a neat, airy presence to the border and the wild garden. Its economic value is real: the yarrow is prized for its fine, feathery foliage and its flat-topped heads of many small flowers, and its beauty has drawn attention in the international horticultural press, while its fine, feathery heads have also made it a valued plant of the dried arrangement. To bring the yarrow on, sow the fine seeds on the surface of moist, free-draining compost in a bright spot, press them in lightly, keep them lightly watered, and grow the little plants on in the sun.

Its economic value is real. The yarrow is prized for its fine, feathery foliage and its flat-topped heads of the many small flowers, and its beauty has drawn attention in the international horticultural press as a plant of the garden, while its fine, feathery heads have also made it a valued plant of the dried arrangement. For a grower, the yarrow is an easy and rewarding plant, and for a gardener it brings a fine, feathery, flat-topped, cerise-flowered plant to the border. The seeds are easy to start — press them gently into the surface of moist, free-draining soil in the light, keep them lightly watered, and theyll be sprouting readily, growing on into a fine, feathery, flat-topped-flowered plant.
