      • Location:Plant Yarrow in a location with full sun and well-drained soil. It is tolerant of a wide range of soil types, including poor or rocky soil.
      • Planting:Sow Yarrow seeds directly into the garden in early spring or fall, or plant nursery-grown seedlings. Sow seeds at a depth of about 1/4 inch.
      • Spacing:Space Yarrow plants about 12 to 18 inches apart.
      • Care:Water regularly until established. Once mature, Yarrow is drought-tolerant and requires minimal care. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering and prevent self-seeding if desired. Cut back the foliage in late fall or early spring to promote vigorous growth and prevent flopping.
