Its botanical name honours the legendary Greek warrior Achilles, who according to tradition used the plant to treat the wounds of his soldiers on the battlefield. Over the centuries it has accumulated many common names including Bloodwort, Woundwort, Staunchweed, Knight's Milfoil and \u003cem\u003eHerba Militaris\u003c\/em\u003e, reflecting its long association with wound care and first aid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hardy perennial spreads from a creeping rootstock to form a soft, feathery groundcover topped with clusters of white flowers held on stems reaching approximately 40 cm tall. The blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects, making Yarrow a valuable addition to wildlife gardens and productive landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYarrow has a rich history in traditional herbal medicine, where it has been used as a tea, tincture and topical preparation. It has traditionally been regarded as a blood-building and immune-supportive herb and valued for its soothing effects on the mucous membranes. The plant remains one of the most widely cultivated medicinal herbs in temperate regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the garden, Yarrow is prized as a dynamic accumulator and compost activator, contributing potassium, copper, iron and sulphur to compost systems. Its aromatic foliage may also help deter certain insect pests, while its drought tolerance and resilience make it an exceptionally useful companion plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximately 7,600 seeds per gram\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximately 600 seeds per packet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Plant (Australia)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTropics: April to July\u003cbr\u003eSubtropics: March to August\u003cbr\u003eMild climates: March to September\u003cbr\u003eCold climates: September to November and March to May\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow seed on the surface of moist seed-raising mix and lightly press into place.
