Growing yarrow as a cut flower! 

I’ve had 2 yellow yarrow plants for years and I’ve just decided to turn my whole bed into a yarrow bed of all different colors like this

I was washing dishes while I watched this and had to pass so many times to make notes! I love the videos on specific flowers and what they like. Trying to get more into flower growing. I’ve got some yarrow seedlings sprouting (I have a very long growing season in NE FL) and now I know I need to keep them on my porch because it’s very rainy right now. Thanks so much!

I love yarrow!! All of those colors are beautiful! Did you know you have a bunny in the background? 4:35 LOL

Totally agree! Yarrow is such a great perennial!

Leaving the old stems for support is a great tip, thanks!

Love the varieties you have. I appreciate the staking tips. So far in central Florida I've had great luck even with all our daily rain. I definitely spaced them way further apart to help with airflow but will need to stake them soon.

Your information on the specific characteristics of this plant is quite valuable!! You do a great job! I grew the basic golden Yarrow a few years ago and had to remove it! I bought it on clearance at Lowes for $1 and it just said Yarrow written on a white stick with no flowers. I was hoping for pink instead. But, in just 2 years it became invasive. It looked amazing until it flopped, and that's where the trouble started. LOL I was new to gardening then & didn't get out in time to cut back all the dried flowers (had gone to seed) and mercy, it was an 8'x8' patch of rooted stems and new shoots everywhere! Now, I have a small patch of the light pink variety (in a different location) that I got from my son's garden, and hoping I can do better at keeping it in check. Yarrow loves our sandy acidic soil. It's usually hot, humid & lacking rain here in Northern Ind for July, but we've already had over 3" of rain this month!

You mentioned the spring rain in Colorado and it definitely was no joke this year! According to the CSU Climate Center, between May and June it was the highest amount of precipitation ever recorded for those two months combined. All the more to grow native plants like the Yarrow in Colorado 🌱 ⛰️ For viewers not in Colorado, plants native to your region are more tolerant to the craziness that may or may not happen in your area. Many beautiful natives for all climate areas in the USA and beyond.

Please keep sharing! Lots of important knowledge in your brain. Thank you so much! Watching your videos helps me to maximize my flowers in the garden and as cut flowers in the house.

Great video!

So an inspiring and very informative video! Thanks for sharing your gardening ideas with us! 🤩🪴

They are absolutely beautiful perennial specialy when plant close altogether.

Its also really hardy, iv found for me anyway, i have some i wanted to move and divide i roughly cut it up with a spade, plopped the chunks into pots and sat them under my pear tree this was weeks ago and its winter here atm, they have new shoots growing from them already! I also dried some last season the darker colours dried really well and keep abit of colour ❤ your gardens looking beautiful thanks for sharing!

I grew yarrow in UK for the first time last year. Didn't realise it was perennial, but luckily left it in. Wow has it gone mad this year. My early cuttings flopped in the vase - now I know to leave them longer. The plants do try to flop and spread out. Going to find a better home for then for next year. Best wishes

I would love more info on the blue grama grass you are growing as a ground cover to suppress weeds in your perennials beds!

Will be adding the firefly yarrow to my list.

I am planning to start growing yarrow next year, this year i just have wild white one.

I haven't tried it out yet myself, but yarrow is also meant to be a good plant for dye, producing yellows. I have wild in the yard & a couple of colored varietals & intend to give it a try with wool from my sheep. Fingers crossed.

I love this plant too! I planted a hedge row of it in one garden and got some unique cross bred seedlings. The only caution id add for some people is it can really grow and spread fast. I started white pearl from seed and 10 plants cast off a out 1000 seedlings (zone 5b). But im not complaining haha😂

Was wondering if you have a video of how you make tinctures and simple syrups out of your flowers and or herbs

I love how you always mention if you're growing different cultivars, that it isn't the same/ as beneficial as native soecies- I never knew that! Does it still have a good vase life if some of the pollen is showing? I have some that I feel are a little past sue, that I could use for my market Saturday, but have never vase life tested it once the pollen is showing. (I think it's pollen stage... it's a little more open than "fully open)

Did you grow this variety from seeds or plugs? It would do soooo well in our north Texas heat! ☺️🥰

Hi! Thank you! Do you know of any seed suppliers for firefly peach? All I’m finding is plants.

I have been cutting IMMATURE Yarrow this year for bouquets. I do NOT like the smell of mature/open Yarrow. I have not had many flopping issues. They hydrate in vase and look GREAT!

Hi! Just discovered your channel ❤ Can you let me know if this is a “ cut and come again “ flower? Thanks!

How late into the year does the yarrow keep blooming? I'm also in CO and I haven't tried growing it so far, but I've been thinking about getting some more fall blooming plants if I can.

Where did you get your firefly peach yarrow from. I love that color.

Where can I buy the firefly yarrow peach seeds

where did you get the seeds of the firefly peach

I bought some yarrow and I've been unsure of how to plant it. Should I till and make a grass-free flower bed..or can I put down mulch and a weed barrier? I want it to be able to grow and spread while still looking nice.

You said you don't irrigate those beds but you probably handwater it, right? How often? I am hot dry climate as well. Our triple digits are often around 105 for months. I handwater a little daily but am unsure how much I could reduce that with temps so high. We will be 112° this weekend.

Hi, do you grow your yarrow by seed? And if you do, do you direct sow or grow indoor?

Have you ever had trouble with rabbits eating your yarrow? Any suggestions on deterrents? I bought two plants in bloom and the rabbits decapitated both plants in a matter of a week.

4:35 , omg you have a rabbit 🥰

Здравствуйте напишите мне пожалуйста названия этих цветов чтобы правилна заказат семена спасибо за влог успех и семейного благополучия

Did anyone see the bunny hopping in the background?🐇

I’ve been trying to get my hands on yarrow for a couple years. If you’re able to send me some, let me know! I would love some. 🫶🏻
