Achillea Ending Blue

Achillea ‘Ending Blue’ is a distinctive yarrow that adds a serene touch to any garden, with blooms that shift in colour from soft shades of pink to a subtle, bluish tint as they mature. Despite its name, this variety showcases a beautiful gradient of pink tones that gracefully transition to a cooler hue, creating a gentle contrast against the feathery green foliage. Blooming from late spring through summer, this hardy perennial is ideal for UK gardens, thriving in sunny borders, cottage gardens, and naturalistic designs. ‘Ending Blue’ is not only low-maintenance but also a favourite among pollinators, attracting bees and butterflies. Supplied as bare root plants, it’s a unique choice that brings elegance, colour, and a natural charm to outdoor spaces.

Achillea ‘Ending Blue’ yarrow plants typically reach a height of around 60-70 cm and has a spread of about 45-60 cm. This moderate size makes it ideal for adding structure and a soft, natural look to garden beds and borders.

Achillea ‘Ending Blue’ is part of the Rainbow series, a collection known for its vibrant and varied colour transitions. This series was specifically bred to offer unique colour-shifting blooms, making ‘Ending Blue’ a standout with its pink-to-bluish shades.
