Whether you have a challenging landscape or if you are a forgetful gardener, Moonshine Yarrow may be the perfect plant for you. Vibrant canary-yellow clusters of tiny flowers bloom from June through September. The lovely flowers sit atop tall stems that have silvery foliage. Achillea filipendulina is a hardy plant that can handle just any about weather, from cold and warm temperatures and drought conditions. This perennial is low maintenance, and once it is established, it does not require much attention.

At 18 to 24 inches tall, this perennial will look best in a spot that can handle taller plants, so feature near the middle or back of a bed where it will not overshadow smaller plants. Feature the Moonshine Yarrow in beds, borders, mass plantings, or containers. This plant has an upright growth habit, and it is a vigorous grower that can easily take over a space. Pollinators are attracted to the fragrant blooms, but foraging animals tend to keep away.

Moonshine Yarrow Care

Plant Moonshine Yarrow in full sun. This stunner needs at least 6 hours of daily sunlight. Give the plant about one inch of water per week. This plant is drought-tolerant once established but keep up with watering until it feels at home. Soil should be rich, dry to medium, and well-drained. Yarrow is a vigorous grower without fertilizer, and feeding this plant may cause it to become invasive, so avoid fertilizing this perennial.

Remove spent blooms to encourage the plant to rebloom during the summer. Deadheading the plant will also prevent the plant from self-seeding. Prune the Yarrow after the flowers die back to maintain the size.

Moonshine Yarrow Spacing

The tall stems of the Moonshine Yarrow will reach 18 to 24 inches tall, and this plant will cover an area 18 to 24 inches wide. Plants can be spaced 18 to 24 inches apart to create a full and lush planting.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

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. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

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. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

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.
