Terracotta Yarrow
Achillea ‘Terracotta’
1 gallon pot
 
A warm and ever-changing perennial, Terracotta yarrow produces large, flat-topped flower clusters that open in rich shades of burnt orange and terracotta before gradually maturing through apricot, peach, and soft golden-yellow. The shifting colors create a dynamic, multicolored display that adds exceptional depth and warmth to the summer garden. Finely textured, fern-like gray-green foliage provides an attractive backdrop to the blooms.
 
This variety thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, where it maintains a sturdy, upright habit and flowers most heavily. It is highly drought tolerant once established and benefits from deadheading or cutting back after the first flush to encourage additional blooms. An excellent choice for pollinator gardens, cottage borders, and cut flower arrangements.
