Common name:Cloth of Gold Yarrow
Botanical name:Achillea 'Moonshine'
Long, straight stems with pale yellow flowers are apparent on the mats of green to grey-green leaves of this plant, which are flatter and less divided than those of the Achillea millefolium.
The yarrow propagate easily from rooted cuttings or division, which should be performed in the early spring or fall. Following bloom, one should dead head the plant and divide the clumps when it appears crowded.

Botanical name:Deutzia hybrida 'Pink-A-Boo'
