Achillea 'Moonshine' is the perfect selection for those dry, sunny areas where nothing else will grow. 'Moonshine' has wonderful ferny foliage topped with canary yellow flower clusters. The plants begin blooming in early summer and flowers last for many weeks. If the plants are cut back after the first flowering they will rebloom again in late summer. A cross between Achillea clypeolata x A. aegyptiaca var. taygetea, both European species.
