      hey jennifer, clay soil is not its favorite. Germination is very rapid, make sure the seed is barely covered. all you really need is one plant and you can propagate ad infinitum from runners. maybe time to jump for a plant.

      Hey Richo. Super Yarrow seeds! Had to thin them out. I think my soil was a little rich for them. They grew long and leggy. I transplanted them by the shovel full in different spots on the property. Even in gravelly soil. Hope I can naturalize them because they took over the garden lol. Thanks so much! Peace

    Which is the best Yarrow to plant medicinally? I heard the white one was the best, is that correct? And I was wondering if you could use the leaves as a tea to drink for pay for your allergies bloating etc.

      hi there, you are right, it is the white-flowered yarrow that has best medicinal qualities. Herbalists consider the entire plant is active and safe. Yet I would consider it to be more of a remedial herb than a tonic, so i guess one would drink the tea only when needed. Given the high tannin level i would predict it would act as a shrinker of mucous membranes which could help in hypersecretion/allergenic states. r

      hi sarah, one needn’t wait until spring to plant perennials. here we’ve just finished planting echinacea, nettles, dandelion and elecampane. could have just as well done yarrow as well. richo

      I’m still seeds, getting ?+ temps where I’m at, but I found a way to get around planting here in the heat by utilizing shade between two of my potted fruit trees, etc. and/or morning sun mostly up to 6 hours. And I use pvc structures, cardboard, etc. for pm sun protection so leaves don’t burn up.
      NOTE:
      I waited till soil temp was warm to plant the Midnight Lightning Zucchini seed I ordered from you and it came up exactly 7 days later. All doing fine!
