Yarrow 'Paprika' {3 1/2 in. Pots, min 25}
Vibrant and bold, Achillea millefolium 'Paprika' features large clusters of intense bright
fire engine red
flowers surrounding a distinctive yellow eye, atop aromatic, green fern-like foliage.
She will add sweeping swaths of color and texture to your garden.
From June to October, 'Paprika' Yarrow's numerous tiny
flowers
form dense 2 to 3 inch wide flower clusters atop nearly
evergreen
fragrant,
lacy, fern-like foliage.
Her rusty red blooms age to pink and white through the summer, adding a lovely multi-colored look. Planting Achillea in afternoon shade will slow the fading a bit. Deadheading encourages more blooms.

Paprika Yarrow prefers well drained, average to poor soil and tolerates heat, humidity and drought. Use in mass for naturalizing, wildflower gardens, rock gardens and mixed beds. Moderately salt tolerant. Suitable for cut and dried flowers and attracts butterflies. Mature height 18-24", spread 18-24".
