An Ernst Pagel introduction, Achillea Terra Cotta is a clumping perennial yarrow reaching a mature height of thirty inches upright and spreading to near two feet before needing to be divided. A select native yarrow, Achillea Terra Cotta has multicolored flower heads ranging from salmon-peach to pale yellow-orange to terra cotta all appearing at the same time. This colorful yarrow will flower all summer if dead-headed often.
Plant in full sun in average to dry soil. As with other yarrows, the Terra Cotta Achillea are deer resistant, tolerant of a wide range of soils, and actually seem to prefer sandy infertile soil. Plant about 2 feet apart. Can be used as tall ground cover to be mowed off in the fall. Planting Zones: 3 - 8. Bloom time June - September.
Garden Care: Achillea is a joy to the gardener for its undemanding adaptive nature and its eagerness to perform abundantly throughout the summer. The foliage is fern-like and aromatic. Keeping this plant out of heavy moist soils, dividing every few years and removing the spent flowers assures months of continuous color.
It wants full sun & very little water, in soil with sharp drainage. They do not require fertilizing, & will become floppy rather than flowerier if fed.
One of the more popular yarrows and perennials is the Achillea Moonshine. Achillea Moonshine proves valuable in the landscape because the foliage and yellow flowers combine beautifully with trees, shrubs, and other perennials.
