Achillea millefolium 'Terracotta' Dusky orange flowers, turning yellow on silver foliage. | Leaves with huge cinnamon stars are surrounded by the loveliest intense orange tea coloured borders. The big, palmate cut leaves darken in the summer and lighten up again in the autumn. Its H. villosa origins give it a big bold habit and summer heat tolerance. |
Achillea millefolium 'Lilac Beauty' Lilac flowers over grey-green foliage. | A rich, bright red semi-double flower on tall deep bronze foliage. An old variety, but with freedom from virus, one of the best. |
Achillea millefolium 'Walter Funcke' Large clumps of orange-red flowers on silver tinted foliage. |
