Growing to approximately 40 cm tall, the flowering stems rise above finely divided, fern-like foliage and provide colour over a long flowering season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardy and wonderfully useful in the garden, Cerise Queen has a clumping, gradually spreading habit and is highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects. The strong stems and long-lasting flowers also have an excellent vase life, making this a valuable addition to cutting gardens, cottage plantings and perennial borders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExceptionally tolerant of heat and dry conditions once established, Yarrow performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. Regular picking or deadheading encourages further flowering, while established clumps can be divided periodically to control their spread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCerise Queen is an ornamental selection of \u003cem\u003eAchillea millefolium\u003c\/em\u003e. While the species has a long and important history as a medicinal herb, particularly for its traditional use in wound care, fevers, circulation and the digestive system, the white-flowered wild type is generally preferred for herbal preparations. Cerise Queen is primarily grown for its richly coloured flowers and ornamental value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\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: Autumn to winter in cooler locations\u003cbr\u003eSubtropics: Autumn to spring\u003cbr\u003eMild climates: Autumn and spring\u003cbr\u003eCold climates: Spring after frost\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow directly or raise in trays, pressing the fine seed gently onto the surface of moist soil or seed-raising mix.
