Additional Information
Achillea millefolium ‘Red Velvet’ grows to a height of 20 to 24 inches, with a spread of 2 to 3 feet. It is recommended for climate zones 3 to 9. It tends to do best in full sunlight. Red Velvet grows best in well drained soils with average amounts of moisture. It can grow in a variety of soil and moisture conditions. After the flowers have faded, trim back to promote more compact foliage appearance. This plant can tend to spread over time, so it should be reduced to the proper size for its space in the springtime.
