      Achillea millefolium ‘Terracotta’ is a striking perennial plant known for its beautiful clusters of long-lasting flowers that shift in color from bright orange to soft terracotta tones as they age.
      Part of the Achillea millefolium (yarrow) family, it is prized for its drought tolerance, low maintenance, and ability to attract pollinators like bees and butterflies.
      The green, finely cut, aromatic foliage forms a compact clump with a light and feathery silhouette, fitting well in more rustic prairie-type settings as well as among more robust and voluminous perennials in a sunny flower bed.
      This variety is often used in mixed borders, cottage gardens, and as a cut flower in arrangements due to its long bloom period and interesting color changes.
      Achillea millefolium can be planted in all regions, in sunny, well-drained soil.

      The Tales:

      It was named after Achilles who used it to bind the wounds of his men at the Battle of Troy as the leaves have astringent properties.

      Yarrow has been found with Neanderthal burials, suggesting its association with human species dates to at least 60,000 years ago

      It has been used since ancient times to heal wounds and stop bleeding, and in the sixteenth century the crushed leaves were used to stop nosebleeds.

      The Miwok in California used the plant as an analgesic and head cold remedy.

      The plant contains a uniquely blue essential oil – today it is used widely for medicinal purposes, for happiness creation, for face masks, for hydration, for chasing away sadness… there is lots of research, just make sure to double check the sources!

      Yarrow tea has and can be used as a sedative or relaxant to reduce anxiety and stress – it is a bit bitter though, so it isn’t for everyone 🙂
