Achillea ‘Hella Glashoff’ at Digging Dog
Yarrow
Legend has it that Achilles used this plant to heal
his soldiers’ wounds after battle. As a folk
remedy, its leaves are prescribed to soothe abrasions
and toothache. We find this sturdy, dependable plant
the perfect remedy for many design situations. The broad, flat flower heads enhance horizontal elements, their colors blending with other perennials. Spicy smelling, fernlike foliage and strong
straight stems add to overall attractiveness. Spreading
and drought tolerant, Yarrow seems to thrive on
neglect, can handle ocean spray and will bloom again in
the fall if cut back in midsummer. Achillea ‘Hella Glashoff’
In clear creamy lemon hues, the large flattened
umbels are lifted on short and sturdy leafy stems above
a lacelike delicacy of green foliage. Later to bloom
and not as tall as most of our other Achillea
offerings, this softly colored AGM winner is an exemplary
choice for smaller gardens, given border frontage and
Aster ‘Lutetia’ as a companion.
Blooms September–early November. Size: 12" high x 15" wide; hardy to zone 4. Achillea ‘Hella Glashoff’ (P-1238) Each $6.75
