Achillea grown from seeds may produce flowers during its first growing season when started early under suitable conditions. Flowering time depends on the variety, planting date, climate, and growing environment. Some plants may establish foliage first and flower more abundantly in their following season.
Some Achillea cultivars naturally change flower shades as their blooms mature, and certain varieties may develop softer or faded colors over time. The exact color changes depend on the cultivar, sunlight, temperature, and growing conditions. Check the supplier's variety description for expected flower colors.
Established Achillea plants are known for tolerating relatively dry conditions and moderately poor soils. They generally perform best in sunny locations with well-drained soil. Avoid prolonged waterlogging and excessive fertilizer, as overly rich or wet conditions can encourage weak growth.
