100% Peat Free Pollinator Friendly

Sprays of bright orange-red flowers with a distinct yellow centre appear in summer over grey foliage, the blooms gently fading to cream as they mature. A favourite of RHS Hampton Court show garden designers, it produces masses of flowers over a long period.

An excellent choice for a hot-coloured border, it mixes particularly well with lower-growing ornamental grasses. A reliable cottage garden staple. Best in full sun in free-draining soil.

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.
