Beloved for its long blooming season and tolerance to neglect, yarrow is an outstanding plant for any garden. The large clusters of small yellow flowers of Sassy Summer Silver shine with their bright golden colors while supported by silver threaded foliage. Even though it is taller than other varieties on the market, nearly 3 ft., the 'Sassy Summer' series of yarrow maintain their vigor and shape. With their textured silver/green foliage this makes them great for background plantings and other applications where you might otherwise use a shrub. Yarrow's tolerance to poor soil conditions mean that this plant can succeed where others have failed.

As blooms slow down cut the plant down by half and this will often stimulate new growth and additional flowering.
