‘Moonshine’ produces intense yellow flowerheads in early summer above soft, silver-grey foliage — a particularly striking colour combination in the genus.

Among the earliest achilleas to flower, it combines brilliantly with strong blues, purples and pinks, adding real zing to a border. Long-flowering and drought tolerant, it also cuts well for arrangements. Best in free-draining soil in full sun.

Plant Notes

  • Care Guide:

    Achillea 'Moonshine' is drought tolerant once established but dislikes heavy, wet clay over winter. Cut back after the first flush of flowers to encourage repeat-flowering. More clump-forming than many achilleas, it is less vigorous but benefits from division every three to four years to keep it flowering well.
