Everwilde Farms - 1 lb White Yarrow Native Wildflower Seeds - Gold Vault Bulk Seed Packet

This wildflower is a common sight across the US and is often found growing in dry soils. The foliage is aromatic, and the long-lasting flowers work well for dried arrangements. Yarrow is also a valuable species for its herbal properties. Native to Southern Europe, yarrow has been a traditional part of herb gardens for hundreds of years because of its fragrant foliage and cheerful, long lasting flowers. Yarrow can often be found in fields, along roads, or on rocky hillsides. Linnaeus named it for Greek general Achilles, who according to legend received yarrow as a gift from the gods; the general's soldiers used yarrow to stanch the flow of their blood in the battlefields of the Trojan War. In the early days of the American prairies, Native American tribes such as the Pawnee, Cherokee, and Chippewa used common yarrow to relieve pain and headaches, reduce fever, and induce sleep. Cosmetic preparations sometimes include yarrow because of its cleansing, refreshing effect.
