Lilac Beauty Yarrow

Lilac Beauty Yarrow

Yarrow is a valuable medicinal and ecological plant. As a medicinal herb it is used for colds, fevers, indigestion, and to heal wounds or stop bleeding. As an ecological plant in the permaculture guild it is valued as a dynamic accumulator, a plant that is deep rooted and brings nutrients from deep in the soil back to the surface. The Lilac Beauty variety has all the same excellent qualities of common yarrow in a form that boasts beautiful lilac purple flowers.
