{"product_id":"firefly-diamond-yarrow-72-cell-plug-tray","title":"Firefly Diamond Yarrow - 72-Cell Plug Tray","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirefly Diamond is a clean, bright white yarrow that holds its flat flower heads high on sturdy stems above dark green, feathery leaves. The blooms keep looking fresh as they age instead of browning quickly, so the plant stays presentable from early summer well into late summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt grows into a strong, upright clump about two feet tall and a bit wider, making it a good choice for sunny borders, cottage and prairie-style plantings, and cutting gardens. Butterflies and bees visit the broad flower clusters all season, and deer and rabbits tend to leave it alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlat-topped clusters 3 to 4 inches across made of hundreds of tiny ivory white florets with pale cream centers. The clusters sit on stiff, straight stems held evenly above the foliage, forming a level white canopy. Leaves are dark green, finely divided and fernlike, about 4 to 6 inches long, forming a dense base. The plant has an upright, columnar clump shape 24 to 28 inches tall and 32 to 40 inches wide. At peak bloom the whole top of the plant is covered in crisp white plates contrasting with the dark feathery leaves below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirefly Diamond thrives in the same sunny, lean, well-drained ground as lavender, and its flat white plates make a crisp contrast against lavender's purple spikes while blooming alongside it in early to midsummer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun and lean to average, well-drained soil; water regularly the first season, then only during long dry spells. Hardy in USDA zones 3-8. Avoid rich soil, which makes stems tall and floppy. Shear the stems back by about half once the first flush fades to encourage a second round of flowers and keep the clump tidy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Achillea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ivory white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, columnar clump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24–28 in tall × 32–40 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-June\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-July\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repeat Blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne full 72-cell plug tray: 72 young starter plugs of this variety (cells about 1⅓ in. wide × 2½ in. deep), rooted and ready to pot up into quarts or gallons.
