This is a wonderfull Achillea..very striking in a very sunny garden. It can withstand a lot of drought and helps neighbourplants to keep straight. Now it has matured, planted her in 2002, it has solid stalks that go up to 120 cm with a long bloomingtime. It also gives a nice wintersilhouette when you don't cut of the stalks. I like the aromatic scent of it when you touch the leaves...yep..this is surely summer!
