Locally grown

Achillea Coronation Gold or Achillea filipendulina Coronation Gold has nectar-rich, bright golden yellow flowers that contrast beautifully with its silver-green foliage.

The green, finely cut, aromatic foliage forms a compact clump with a light and feathery silhouette, fitting well in more rustic prairie-type settings as well as among more robust and voluminous perennials in a sunny flower bed. The flowers are tall, bright yellow and flat-topped.

The flowers are actually complex flower heads, consisting of numerous tiny globular corymbs placed closely together, giving them a bumpy appearance.

Floral Morphology

The flowers of Achillea filipendulina are arranged in flat-topped umbels, forming striking golden clusters at the ends of erect stems.

Each tiny flower is actinomorphic with five petals, and together they create a dense, cloud-like floral display.

The finely divided, fern-like leaves are alternate and aromatic, giving a soft texture that contrasts beautifully with coarser garden plants.

When touched, the foliage emits a mild herbal scent, adding both tactile and olfactory interest to the garden.

Reproductive Biology

Achillea is hermaphroditic, capable of self-pollination, though cross-pollination by bees, butterflies, and hoverflies is preferred.

Flowering occurs from late spring into midsummer, and deadheading can prolong bloom slightly.

Fruits are small achenes that may self-seed under optimal conditions, allowing the plant to slowly naturalize in sunny, well-drained sites.

The combination of bright flowers and aromatic foliage makes this Achillea highly attractive to pollinators, enhancing the ecological value of garden plantings.
