Description
Achillea 'Gloria Jean'
Height x Spread: 60cm x 60cm
A beautiful mid pink variety with individual florets that are a bit larger than the average Achillea. This hard to find Yarrow is much sought after by designers, as its clear flower colour persists even when the plant is starting to go over and is neatly complimented by its grey-green foliage.
Great for attracting pollinators, a second flush of flowers can be encouraged by cutting the plant back to ground level after the first flush has finished. Poorer soils and a sunny position are always good for these plants.
