This tough, spreading, UK wildflower has long, narrow, finely dissected, very aromatic green leaves, and white, umbel-like flowers floating above ribbed stems, and these easy-to-grow British natives are often tinged pink, adding to their allure. They are perfect for wilder parts of your garden and even amongst ornamental grasses to attract bees, butterflies, hoverflies and other beneficial insects. Yarrow is also good for cutting and drying, and has numerous herbal uses including making a distinctive flavour of tea!
