White Yarrow features finely dissected green foliage and flat-topped clusters of tiny white flowers. White Yarrow is terrific as a wildflower groundcover or as a clump in a blooming meadow. White Yarrow is a perennial that is tolerant to hot, humid summers and often grown to prevent soil erosion. White Yarrow is a mid season bloomer that can often be found in fields, along roads, and on rocky hillsides. The clusters of tiny white flowers have an alluring scent that attracts bees and butterflies. White Yarrow can tolerate poor soil conditions and does best in lean, dry to medium wet, well-drained soil.
