Collection: Annie's Annuals - Achillea - Common Yarrow

Achillea, more commonly known as Yarrow, is a garden workhorse that blends rugged resilience with elegant beauty. With its feathery, aromatic foliage and clusters of flat-topped blooms, Achillea adds both texture and color to borders, meadows, and pollinator gardens.
