Red Yarrow (Achillea millefolium rubra) produces tiny red to magenta flower clusters that attract hummingbirds and beneficial insects. Plant in full sun. Once established, this lovely perennial wildflower is drought tolerant and thrives in poor soil with very little maintenance. These perennials put out a scent that naturally repels deer, too.

Great for the Garden - The tiny red, magenta, and rose pink colors of the red yarrow blossom attract native pollinators, especially butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds. This perennial wildflower thrives even in poor conditions outdoors, and is a reliable companion plant.

Cold Stratify for Better Germination - For best results, recreate winter conditions to prime the seeds for planting. For indoor seed starting, sprinkle seeds into a damp paper towel, roll up, and store in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks, then sow as usual. Stratification encourages seeds to sprout, giving you more young seedlings to become healthy plants.
