Achillea ‘Terracotta’ is a stunning perennial that brings warm, earthy tones to your garden. Growing to a height of 60-80 cm (24-32 inches), this hardy plant is perfect for borders, cottage gardens, and wildflower meadows. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for sunny, dry spots where other plants may struggle.

Flowering from June to September, Achillea ‘Terracotta’ produces flat clusters of tiny, terracotta-orange flowers that fade to a softer yellow as they mature. This prolonged flowering period provides continuous interest and colour throughout the summer months.

To maintain its shape and encourage more blooms, it’s best to prune Achillea ‘Terracotta’ in late autumn after the flowering season ends. Simply cut back the spent flower stems to the base of the plant. Feeding is minimal; a general-purpose fertiliser applied in early spring will suffice to support healthy growth and abundant blooms.

Achillea ‘Terracotta’ is a fantastic plant for bees and other pollinators. The dense clusters of small flowers are rich in nectar and pollen, providing an excellent food source. This makes it an ideal choice for creating a wildlife-friendly garden, supporting local ecosystems, and promoting biodiversity.
