Yarrow is a native perennial prized for its drought resistance and long blooming period during the summer. Milly Rock™ Rose Yarrow is a fantastic cultivar bred to have intense color and foliage that stays fresh and green throughout the growing season. Milly Rock™ Rose blooms nonstop from late spring to fall, providing nectar for local beneficial pollinators, hummingbirds, and butterflies, and fits nicely into a meadow or naturalized garden area. 

Achillea millefolium Milly Rock™ Rose looks great in the front of a garden border or as a filler element in a seasonal container planting. The bright rosy pink flowers remain vibrant through heat and drought, with only a tiny amount of deadheading needed. Deer are not prone to browse on yarrow, and very few diseases attack this hardy grower.  

Milly Rock™Rose Yarrow Care

Milly Rock™ Rose requires full sun and well-draining soil. A soil that is not compacted or overly rich is perfect, with neutral to alkaline pH. Yarrow is drought resistant and will grow with little supplemental watering after it matures. Mulching the root zone early in the spring will help the soil retain more moisture and cool the root zone. Provide about 1 inch of water weekly for the first 1-2 years in the summer. Yarrow is perfect for planting in a rain garden's transition area (zone 3).

Deadheading will encourage continued blooming, although it is not necessary. Plants are naturally dense and do not require pinching to remain compact. Fertilizing is only needed once a year in the early spring. Apply a granular, slow-release, balanced fertilizer to give the roots and flowers extra nutrition. Clean up yarrow in late winter. Leaving the spent flowers and foliage in place over winter helps to insulate the crown and provide shelter for wildlife. 

Milly Rock™ Rose Yarrow Spacing

Milly Rock™ Rose Yarrow is very compact and only reaches a height and spread of 10-12 inches. The plants should be placed 10 inches apart on center when planted in large groups. Planting this yarrow in containers is excellent for small spaces and will require at least an 8-inch diameter pot.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
