Description

Achillea millefolium, commonly known as yarrow or common yarrow, is a flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It isnative to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere in Asia, Europe, and North America.It has been introduced as a feed for live stock in places like New Zealand and Australia. However, it is a weed in those places and sometimes also in its native regions.



A. millefolium is an erect, herbaceous, perennial plant that produces one to several stems 0.2–1m (0.66–3.28 ft) in height, and has a spreading rhizomatous growth form. Leaves are evenly distributed along the stem, with the leaves near the middle and bottom of the stem being the largest. The leaves have varying degrees of hairiness (pubescence). The leaves are 5–20cm (2.0–7.9 in) long, bipinnate or tripinnate, almost feathery, and arranged spirally on the stems. The leaves are cauline, and more or less clasping.
