Yarrow

Yarrow is a remarkably resilient, herbaceous perennial plant belonging to the Asteraceae family, widely recognized for its feathery, fern-like leaves and flat-topped clusters of small white or pink flowers. Native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, yarrow has a rich historical background as a medicinal herb, traditionally used to staunch bleeding and treat wounds. It thrives in various environments, showing exceptional drought tolerance once established. The plant is also a favorite in companion planting and garden designs due to its ability to attract beneficial predatory insects while improving poor soils with its deep root system.
