Out of stock
Overview
Upright branching stems topped with flowerheads of purplish-pink flowers with cream centres. A valuable addition to any border with its long lasting flat heads of flowers that attract many beneficial insects including hoverflies and butterflies. Flowers fade very slowly keeping some of their colour until the flower head eventually dies, making them a perfect choice for florists as cut flowers for the vase arrangements. They can also be dried.
Achilleas are happiest in a fertile, free-draining but moist soil in full sun.
Removing fading flower heads regularly, combined with a high potash feed, will encourage new flower stems.
