Description

 

This form of achillea has tiny pure white double flowers in billowing clouds on good length stems which are good for the garden or for cutting. It is a hardy plant whose tidy mounds of growth will withstand some drought and it flowers from early summer right through to late autumn. It makes an excellent container plant. It flowers in the first year from seed.

Sowing advice

Surface sow in spring and autumn onto moist well-drained seed compost in trays or pots. Do not cover seeds as light aids germination. Propagate or place somewhere warm 18-25°C. Water from the base of tray only. Keep moist but not wet. Germination takes 5-10 days. When seedlings have 2 true leaves prick out to 8cm pots and grow on. Acclimatise and plant out once danger of frost has passed with 50cm spacing.
