Achillea ‘Firefly™ Fuchsia’ brings glowing colour to the garden all season long. Part of the Firefly™ series, it offers a taller presence without sacrificing strong habit or sturdiness. It forms a tidy mound of finely textured, fern-like foliage topped with wide, flat flower clusters. Deep fuchsia-pink blooms open in early summer and gradually soften to light pink as they age, creating a long-lasting, dynamic display. Exceptionally easy to grow, yarrow thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for beginners and experienced gardeners alike. The bold flowers and airy foliage create a perfect balance of texture and colour, while the broad flower heads serve as popular landing pads for bees and other pollinators—a bright, reliable performer for sunny borders and summer gardens.

Growing and Maintenance Tips
Grow Achillea ‘Firefly™ Fuchsia’ in full sun for best flowering, colour, and compact form. Plant in well-drained soil—good drainage is essential, as achillea dislikes soggy conditions, especially in winter. Water regularly during the first season to establish roots. Once established it is drought tolerant. Deadheading spent blooms will keep the display fresh and can encourage additional flowering. Avoid heavy fertilization—average soil promotes the strongest stems and best habit. Cut back in late fall or early spring before new growth begins.
