Achillea Huteri
£1.95 – £20.00
Description
With silver foliage and mat forming habit this plant brings an array of white flowers.
This plant is ideal in the Rock garden, containers and in the border. Ideally suited to a sunnier position it will withstand a fair amount of shade and with its ability to survive harsh dry weather it can bring a splash of silver foliage to those dry shadier areas in the garden.
Drainage is recommended but we have tested this plant in both moist and dry soils and there is only a slight margin of improvement in drier soils.

I’m sure it will be lovely when it flowers, but it also has really interesting silver foliage. This is the first time I have bought plug plants from Darcy & Everest and I’m very happy with them. They are strong and healthy plants with good root systems for its size.
