Serbian Yarrow

Serbian yarrow is a dainty-looking plant, but is tough as nails.

It grows as a tidy mounding cushion of toothed, silver-grey leaves. In late spring to early summer, small white flowers grow on top of erect stalks.

Since it's a small mounding plant, it works well in rock gardens and small spaces. Serbian yarrow is well suited to hot, sunny locations.
