Yarrow (Achillea millefolium)
3.78 $ 3.78 $ 3.7800000000000002 CAD
Yarrow is a perennial plant of the Asteraceae family, edible and medicinal tonic, digestive, antispasmodic, haemostatic, hypotensive, healing properties. Just that. It is perhaps for these reasons that this plant was found, during a DNA analysis in Neanderthal dental plaque! Indeed the Achillé Millefeuille was found in a Neanderthal tomb discovered during archaeological excavations in Iraq. It is also an excellent host plant for garden helpers.


CULTURAL INFORMATION
Sow preferably in a bucket, indoors, the germination of yarrow being difficult. Possible nevertheless in the ground. Arrange on the surface. Do not cover as the seeds need light to germinate.

MAINTENANCE AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
Prune stems after harvest to promote regrowth. Harvesting yarrow from spring sowing is possible from the second year of growth only. Love the sun!
