Moonshine Yarrow is a fantastic addition to your landscape border. Liven up any sunny perennial border with this perky yellow flower, or mix with ornamental grasses in your yard for a bold wild-flower look. Or, plant your Moonshine Yarrow in pots strategically placed around your yard for a neat, contained appearance. This sunny flower also looks stunning when cut and mixed with dried flowers, giving you plenty of decorative options for floral arrangements around your home.
This fast-growing perennial plant, with its flat, bold yellow flowers, attracts butterflies into your garden. Butterflies love everything about this pretty herbaceous perennial. It’s a wonderful nectar source.
It can easily tolerate poor soil conditions, although it thrives in well-drained, lean, dry to medium-wet soil. To use in heavy clays and wet, rich, fertile soils, plant them in a raised bed. Or, look for a dry spot in your garden, it will be happy to nestle in and dazzle you.
This hearty flower only needs occasional watering once it’s established, making it a great choice for drought tolerant and xeriscape landscapes. Moonshine Yarrow (and most Yarrows) won’t burn in the event of a fire, making it a definite must-have for defensible space planting in any firewise landscape. That means that no matter how dry your region is during the hot summer months, you can rest assured knowing that this bright little flower will protect you and your property in the off-chance of a wildfire spreading your way.
Yarrow should be planted in full sun and is tolerant to hot humid summers. For an attraction to butterflies, deer and rabbit resistant, you can’t go wrong with this plant. Order today!
