It's the classic golden yellow flowering herb of the old-world, that grows to a height of 47-59 inches, making it a focal plant in the middle or in the back of any flower bed. Yarrow Achillea seeds yield dozens of brilliant 6in. golden yellow flowers, that bloom from late June to July. It's a highly drought-resistant plant, so excellent in hard to grow areas.
It's nice to use as a companion plant in the vegetable garden, too - its beautiful scent, repels aphids, but attracts hover-flies, ladybugs and wasps that feed on common garden pests. Enzymes in the cells of this herb help to break compost down swiftly. Simply cut stalks down at the end of the season and breaking them into manageable pieces to be added whenever you top up the compost heap.

What is it used for?
Traditional / Ethno-botanical uses
Yarrow is native to Europe and Asia, and has been naturalized in North America. Its use in food and medicine is ancient, dating back to the Trojan War, around 1200 BC. In legend, Achilles used it on the Centaur's advice, hence the name. In classical times, yarrow was referred to as "herba militaris" because it stopped bleeding wounds received in war. Yarrow leaves have been used for tea, and young leaves and flowers have been used in salads. Infusions of yarrow have served as cosmetic cleansers and medicines. Yarrow has been used therapeutically as a "strengthening bitter tonic" and astringent. Chewing fresh leaves has been suggested to relieve toothaches. Yarrow oil has been used in shampoos for a topical "healing" effect.
Miscellaneous uses
Yarrow has been used to induce sweating and to stop wound bleeding. It also has been reported to reduce heavy menstrual bleeding and pain. It has been used to relieve GI ailments, for cerebral and coronary thromboses, to lower high blood pressure, to improve circulation, and to tone varicose veins. It has antimicrobial actions, is a natural source for food flavoring, and is used in alcoholic beverages and bitters. Research to date, reveals no clinical data regarding the use of yarrow to treat any of these medical conditions.
