Garden Goods Direct Perennials Achillea Moonshine

Achillea Moonshine, a golden strain of the popular Common Yarrow plant produces bright yellow flowers that brighten up any sun-loving garden all summer long! Yarrow Moonshine has gray green foliage and produces 3-foot tall stems topped with broad, bright lemon-yellow flat-topped flower heads.

Ideal conditions for the Apricot Delight Achillea include full sun and well-drained soils. This herbaceous perennial plant is well known for its disease-resistant, hardy, drought tolerant foliage, especially in hot, humid summers and deer resistance. A great addition to perennial borders, rock gardens, and mixed containers.

Moonshine Yarrow makes a beautiful cut flower and is an excellent deer-proof perennial that attracts butterflies. Alan Bloom introduced it in 1950, so saying it has withstood the test of time is an understatement. An ideal choice for a sunny, hot, dry site.

This deer-resistant flower stands out like a beacon in pollinator gardens. It’s not uncommon to see hundreds of pollinators using the large flat flowers as feeding stations throughout the summer months.
