Like the other Yarrow, ‘Sunny Seduction’ offers a more compact plant with sturdier stems and more uniformity than other Yarrow making it a no-brainer for the landscape. Sun loving and deer resistant, ‘Sunny Seduction’ is a butterfly magnet when in bloom and the flowers are perfect for cutting and brightening up the inside of the house. Plant it in groups and enjoy the carefree summer bloom show!

Best grown in lean, dry-medium, well-drained sandy loams in full sun. Plants do well in average garden soils and tolerate poor soils as long as drainage is good. Plants also tolerate hot, humid summers and drought. If grown ornamentally, plants are best sited in locations protected from strong winds. Consider cutting back plant stems in late spring before flowering to reduce overall plant height. Cutting plants back to lateral flower buds after initial flowering will tidy the planting and encourage additional bloom. Plants may also be cut back to basal foliage after bloom. Divide clumps as needed (every 2-3 years) to maintain vitality of the planting. Plants spread aggressively by rhizomes and self-seeding, and can naturalize into substantial colonies if left unchecked.
