Description
Large white flowers.
This achillea with its evergreen silver foliage is a great addition to a sunny position. Its flowers are 2-3cm across on tall sturdy stems in late spring normally flowering at the RHS Chelsea flower show and looking magnificent. Surviving all droughts so far this is a very tough achillea that works well with our drier climate. Ideally suited to the Alpine rock garden, alpine house and containers. Also in free draining borders it will perform equally as well.

Hi Steve
Thank you for taking the time to review your plants. We hope you get many years of joy from them as they establish in your garden.
Regarding delivery we currently ship all orders form the previous week on the following Wednesday. So if ordered on a Monday it is 10 days till DPD drop it off at your door and if ordered on a Sunday it appears 5 days later. We send in this way due to having 600 varieties it is easier and more environmentally friendly to pick up all previous week plants on the Monday. We then quality control them and place in individual orders for packing on the Wednesday. This is all in the delivery terms on our Website (even I forget to look at other website delivery pages, so please don’t worry you missed this) and on the invoices emailed to you. We hope to be able to ship plants quicker in future but haven’t found a more efficient process yet. Please accept my apologies for the current time frame.
All the best
Luke
