Sassy Summer Sunset Yarrow, or Achillea 'Sassy Summer Sunset' is a carefree, generously blooming yarrow that is perfect for a no-fuss garden. This rich, aromatic variety grows tiny individual orange-shaded flowers held together in broad, flat clusters. The leaves are finely divided in vivid shades of green. Sassy Summer Sunset Yarrow is taller than other varieties of Yarrow, reaching heights of 30 to 36 inches with a spread of 30 to 32 inches. It is a summer bloomer with long-lasting flowers that look fantastic all season.

Sassy Summer Sunset Yarrow, bred by Plants That Work, attracts butterflies and pollinators of all kinds with its vibrant colors. It is deer, critter, and disease resistant, and both drought and heat tolerant. This hardy Yarrow is virtually maintenance free and a superb choice for budding gardeners. Sassy Summer Sunset Yarrow is easy to cut and dry for winter arrangements and bouquets. 

Sassy Summer Sunset Yarrow Care

Sassy Summer Sunset is tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions. It prefers full to partial sun and thrives in areas with well-drained to dry soil. Rich soils can make the yarrow too tall and floppy. Sassy Summer Sunset requires average water, but will grow even in dry conditions once established.

To prune your Sassy Summer Sunset, you can remove spent flowers by cutting the plant back by half, after the bloom is done.

Sassy Summer Sunset Yarrow Spacing

Sassy Summer Sunset can be planted en masse along borders. They are great as cut flowers to provide bouquets and arrangements with structure and pops of color. You should space your Sassy Summer Sunset Yarrow plants 3 to 4 feet apart. They work well in planters as both a “filler” and a “thriller”.

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.
