3 years later

3 years later, I do have a luscious green, feathery, soft yarrow lawn. I LOVE it! It is so invasive that very few weeds can grow in it. It is the perfect solution for a low water, no spraying, low maintenance lawn. I’m SO glad that I planted it.

Great lawn alternative!

Living in the country on a well in a drought-common area, I am really excited about having planted yarrow instead of grass for our lawn this year. This seed germinated quickly, is filling in, and will be more lucious every year. It requires little to no water, or mowing. This fall it has sent up charming, sporadic white flowers. I hope over the years, to swap out all of my high maintenance grass for yarrow.
