The soft green leaves of Achillea Salmon Beauty will tolerate foot traffic. Traffic
is not so good for the flowers but brings up the scent of the
fragrant foliage. Any of the
Achillea millefolium varieties are a great lawn substitute. The blooms on Salmon Beauty
are a soft pastel salmon fading to buff. Achillea Salmon Beauty will bloom in Spring and
much of the Summer. Yarrows are hardy in a significant drought but like a little water now and
again and will look much better for it. I use Achillea Salmon Beauty in a perennial border
or massed to give a long lasting soft pastel patch for a garden with warm colors.
Achillea Salmon Beauty is a nectar source for the Checkerspot
Butterfly species and is a great addition to the butterfly
garden.
