Growing notes

Perennial. Yarrow needs light to germinate: press the seed onto the soil surface and leave it uncovered. Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost for the best results, or direct sow outdoors after the last frost. Plant in full sun, spacing plants 12–18 inches apart. Yarrow prefers well-drained soil and is drought-tolerant once established. Deadhead spent flowers to extend blooming, and divide plants every 2–3 years to maintain their vigor.

I was really excited for these but germination was very poor.

Hi Jeannie, I'm sorry this crop didn't work for you. Yarrow needs light to germinate, so the seed should be pressed onto the soil surface and left uncovered. Starting it indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost tends to give the best results.
