Achillea ‘Terracotta’ is a distinctive yarrow offering shades of yellow, orange, and terra cotta. The flowers emerge peachy yellow and age to coppery bronze. The stems rise from mounds of ferny, aromatic foliage. Yarrow can be sheared back hard after the first bloom to keep the plants clean and encourage reblooming. Easy care for the border, cottage, rock or meadow gardens. Valued in bouquets and dried floral arrangements. Great for pollinators, especially bees and butterflies, and for hot, sunny spots. Deer and rabbit resistant.
