Pink Grapefruit Yarrow is an upright, compact herbaceous perennial with deeply dissected dark green aromatic foliage. A uniform bloom of small purple-pink flowers bloom in huge clusters on sturdy stems above the foliage in summer and may rebloom if deadheaded. An excellent cut flower that retains color when dried. Heat and drought tolerant. Prefers full sun and well-drained soils.
