Yarrow is a flowering perennial plant that is well-loved by pollinators due to the striking flowers, and it is a great way to introduce texture and contrast into a landscape. The fern-like foliage has a fine texture and a bold silver color. The tall stems of the Sassy Summer Silver Yarrow are topped by round, flat clusters of tiny yellow blooms. This plant is also known as Achillea, nosebleed plant, and thousand leaf, but whatever you call it, this is a low-maintenance plant that adds drama and texture.

Feature Sassy Summer Silver yarrow plants in beds, borders, mass plantings, or really any sunny spot in need of some color. This gem thrives in USDA zones 3 through 8, where it grows as a perennial. Bees and butterflies are drawn to the delicate blooms, but deer generally keep away from the silvery foliage. Once this plant has had time to settle in, it will be both drought and heat tolerant so that it will look amazing even during intense summer weather.

Sassy Summer Silver Yarrow Care

Yarrow needs full sun, so select an area that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight. This plant can live in partial shade, but the stems may become leggy without plenty of light, and it may then be necessary to stake the plant. The Sassy Summer Silver Yarrow needs about an inch of water per week. Plant in dry to medium well-drained soil. Yarrow may grow too fast and become invasive when fertilized, so avoid feeding this plant, especially if the soil has high organic content.

Deadhead the plant to promote continued blooming. Removing spent flowers will also prevent this aggressive grower from self-seeding. Trim the stems back after the flowers fade to keep the plant a more manageable size.

Sassy Summer Silver Yarrow Spacing

Sassy Summer Silver Yarrow has an upright growth habit and will grow 26 to 30 inches tall and spread 28 to 34 inches. Space plants 20 to 24 inches apart to create a full and lush planting.
