100% Peat Free Pollinator Friendly

Achillea ‘Ruby Wine’ produces clusters of rich ruby-red flowers in broad, flat heads on branching stems above mid-green, finely cut foliage, from June through to September. The flat-headed form is particularly valuable for pollinators, and the flowerheads dry well for cutting.

Long-flowering and drought tolerant, it adds airy richness to cottage garden borders and herbaceous planting, combining beautifully with ornamental grasses. It thrives in full sun in free-draining soil, though it will tolerate a little light shade.

Plant Notes

  • Care Guide:

    Achillea is drought tolerant once established but dislikes heavy, wet clay over winter. Cut back after the first flush of flowers to encourage repeat-flowering. Divide clumps every three to four years to keep plants vigorous.

  • Good to Know:

    Pollinator-friendly — a valuable nectar source for bees and butterflies.

    Reliable and easy to grow.
