'Desert Eve Red' is a compact, upright, clump-forming, herbaceous perennial with finely-divided, dark green leaves and, in summer, erect stems bearing flat clusters of dark red flowers that fade to dull pink.
Sun Exposure:
-
- Achillea plants generally prefer full sun. They thrive in locations with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. While they can tolerate partial shade, they often produce more prolific blooms in sunny conditions.
-
Soil Type:
- Yarrow is adaptable to various soil types, including sandy, loamy, or clay soils. Well-drained soil is crucial to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
-
Moisture:
- Once established, many Achillea varieties are drought-tolerant. They prefer drier conditions and can withstand periods of low water availability. However, consistent moisture can be beneficial, especially during dry spells.
-
Pruning and Deadheading:
- Regular deadheading (removing spent flowers) can encourage continuous blooming. Some varieties may benefit from occasional pruning to maintain a tidy appearance.
