Achillea millefolium is known colloquially as yarrow and is a tall, flowering perennial in the Asteracae family.
The variety ‘White Beauty’ is quite new – it stands out with its flattened umbels of pure white that strike a contrast against the butter-yellow centers.
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.
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 🙂
