Yarrow 'Oertel's Rose' {3 1/2 in. Pots, min 25}
An ode to all things lady-like and pink, this
fuchsia-red
yarrow, known as Oertel's Rose, is perfectly named because of her romantic, rose hue.
From May to October, numerous tiny
flowers
form dense 2 to 3 inch wide flower clusters that perch themselves like Sunday bonnets atop nearly
evergreen
fragrant,
feathery foliage.
As one of the shorter Achilleas, she has a moderate to fast growth rate making her a perfect option in a garden where you need mid-level height and texture. Truly, this antique perennial is a flush of lacey foliage adorned by fuchsia doily-like flowers making her a matriarch of the garden. Interesting Fact This species was cultivated in Europe before 1440 and mixed in ale in place of hops to increase the inebriating quality of the drink.
