Achillea 'Cerise Queen' Seeds

Add a bold splash of colour to your borders with Achillea 'Cerise Queen'. This classic hardy perennial (or Yarrow) is loved for its large, flat-topped clusters of vibrant, cerise-pink flowers that hold their colour beautifully. It's a reliable, easy-to-grow plant that's fantastic for attracting bees and butterflies and provides colour all summer long.

They are amazingly easy-going plants; they may not flower in their first year, but then they truly come into their own. Growing, spreading, and flowering their socks off.

You can divide the clumps every three years or so to give yourself even more beauty to dot the garden. Achillea millefolium Cerise Queen likes good drainage and full sun; they'll be happy in gravel beds too.

Excellent for autumn sowing! See our full Seeds to Sow in September collection. A must-have for our Perennial Flower Seeds collection, brilliant for the Cutting Garden Seeds collection, and loved by wildlife - see our Seeds for Pollinators collection! Dries beautifully - check out our Dried Flowers collection.
