CARE GUIDE

How to keep Achillea Multifida.

Light

Bristly yarrow performs best when it gets ample sunlight each day. This need for daily sun comes from its natural occurrence in open, unshaded habitats. Insufficient sun can result in poor growth, while excessive sun may cause sunscald. Changes in light levels across different growth stages are not crucial for bristly yarrow.

Temperature

Bristly yarrow comes from areas with temperatures between 59 and 90 °F (15 to 32 ℃). This plant does best in temperate climates. Seasonal adjustments may be necessary, needing cooler conditions in winter and warmer ones in summer.

Fertilizer

The best time to fertilize a Bristly yarrow is in early spring, as it comes out of dormancy and begins active growth. Fertilizing supplies essential nutrients for healthy growth. Although Bristly yarrow has relatively low fertilizer requirements, applying fertilizer annually can improve its survival and encourage better, longer-lasting flowers.
