Good Qualities
Year 1
Pure white (2); Color held – did not turn brown – ‘showed’ dye nicely; Good filler – easy to blend with other flowers; It is a nice yarrow but it is white; Not the most desirable color for yarrow; Good vase life; Fairly easy to grow, cut and bunch.
Year 2
Profuse flowering all summer long; soft, lacy white flowers; Very healthy; Bright white color, good vase life, very vigorous; Really vigorous.
Problems
Year 1
Less than half of plants flowered, uninteresting flower; Still early – best yield next year; Bare roots were just strings – if there was a crown, it was negligible; All plants were planted – none survived; Can get rust, and infestations of red ambrosia aphids on lower parts of plants.
Year 2
Stops flowering unless cut back – can get matted – later cuts short and thin; Very severe drought – I hope to have a few plants come spring 2003; Must be divided every 2-3 years; Floppy habit and it is undistinguished white yarrow.

Comments
Year 1
Similar to wild achillea; Have to be creative in sales, as looks — wild; Plants arrived in poor condition; They were a tangled mess; Size of division was very erratic, some were large others were tiny; Best white yarrow; This color (white) represents about 5% of our A. millifolium program.
Year 2
Similar to wild white yarrows; Similar to the straight species – but with smaller flowers, dull color; Best pure white achillea I have seen, better vase life than most millifoliums.
