Achillea millefolium 'Black Butte'
A white-flowering yarrow selection with finely divided foliage.
Growing in Southern California
- Light: Full sun on the coast. Give light afternoon shade in hot inland gardens.
- Water: Water regularly through establishment. Once rooted, give occasional deep irrigation during dry weather.
- Soil: Use well-drained soil. Avoid standing water around the crown.
- Growth: Spreading perennial. Common yarrow flower stalks are typically around 1–2 feet tall, depending on selection and site.
- Wildlife: Flat flower clusters provide nectar and pollen for bees and other insects.
- Care and uses: Use in pollinator borders, informal groundcover or meadows. Remove spent stalks for a tidier planting and edge or divide expanding clumps as needed.
