@gjones I agree there are a lot more varieties out there now, I've seen a few I would like some seem more hardier than others, this one I bought as a plant has done well n been split too, the summer berries I did from seed was easy lots of lovely pastel colours from that packet. I'm partial to a few of the hot colours as well so easy maintenance what's not to love 💞👌😆

@monaboghiu it will flower all summer the blooms will fade to a paler pink/white as the season ends but prolific bloomers for Summer 🌼

Not as bad as the wild one Lin but does spread I split it last year and gave some to mum, its not as tall as the wild n more common ones either, theres a lot of new varieties out now to the common ones, I love them did some from seed too last year called Summer pastels they've come back so pleased about that 😄 @linfoster

@linfoster they need support bit tall for pots but if you do want a dwarf one for pots look for the dessert eve varieties, come in pink, white n yellow 😘

@linfoster I think most yarrow spreads Lin this wasn't too bad I kept it to size I wanted it by giving mum some of it that had, if you didn't keep up to it it probably could but I will maintain it each year maybe keep some more for myself to put down fence 😁 😆

@linfoster I'm just glad it survived I've never been able to keep the dwarf ones over winter they never came back year after out of 3 I bought save gave up and got this one, it will need moving next year as its a bit too tall for middle of border now but too late this year something I've added to do at end of season now 😬

I will read up on how to do them Hayls as it's only a small plant so not seen any babies on it to cut off @hayleyaj 😏

comment
hayleyaj

So why not dig it up and pot it. Cut it back and save it in a frost free spot. It'll die back but you'll be giving it a chance for next year. Achillea are easy to grow from seed too 😁

ublaszko

Don't worry, it's a hardy plant and winter will do it no harm 😊 I think it's one of the most reliable plants in my garden along with hardy geraniums. I planted mine as tiny plugs in February and they handled wet and cold soil well even as tiny plants. Just avoid fertilising it or mulching so it doesn't get floppy next summer. Mine flowers non stop from June to November 👍👍

Oh, I would plunk that in the ground! They survive overwinter in Wisconsin! 🤔

I've had to dig some of my yellow ones up and compost them as not only does it survive winter but it seeds every where and takes over, plus in my garden it grows to about 5ft 😲

6w
comment
Keely

@angiecrazycatlady there are different varieties about now Hun this one only gets to 50cm so not the tall straggling ones that are more common, the desert eve varieties are even shorter 😄

6w
comment
Keely

@hayleyaj I've bought some seeds this year of the summer pastels variety so will more than likely try them next year 😄 I won't have the space to over winter anymore Hayls with all seedlings/cuttings and not very hardy plants I have already I will struggle with what I have as the Summerhouse gets full over winter with everything hope it will be ok 😄

comment
Keely

@ublaszko fingers crossed this is not the more common varieties it's one of the new shorter ones similar to what I have lost in the passed so time will tell Hun 😄
