Cerise Queen

The nights are getting longer and colder up here in the north. Days are still nice and warm but you can feel the autumn coming.

Few years ago I had some extra yarrow seeds and just threw them around. The end result is that I now have Cerise Queens (Achillea millefolium ‘Cerise Queen’) growing here and there.

We have the white form of yarrow as a native plant but no other colors. Cerise Queens are easy to spot since they just stand out.

Yarrow

White form of yarrow is native to this region. To have some variation I started to buy other colors as well.

My trial is now bearing fruits and other colors are starting to appear.

Yarrow is such an appreciative plant it does not require much and grows nearly everywhere. Going to buy some more seeds and continue the trial.
