Achillea Millefolium Occidentalis – Western Yarrow is one of the most common yarrows in the U.S. Commonly used en masse for reclamation projects, the pollen is much appreciated by the Hummingbirds, Butterflies, and Bees. The white flowerheads are flat and grow above the fern-like leaves. In the olden West, I read this was a food for Antelope, Deer, Wild Fowl, and Sheep. Native Americans used it for medicinal purposes as well, to relieve headaches, fever, and pain.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
