Achillea tomentosa was always a favorite rock garden plant and we thought it was time to offer it once again. This time, we have selected the cultivar Achillea tomentosa ‘Goldie’, which is more compact and earlier to flower than Achillea tomentosa ‘Aurea’. The tight mat-forming 3″ tall x 1′ wide clumps of silver hairy foliage are topped with 6″ tall corymbs (your new word for the day) in April and May (NC). Good drainage is important for success with Achillea tomentosa.
