“The delight of summer green and elegance of frosty white are aptly descriptors of the Yarrow, Achillea millefolium, in my garden. It’s a magical herb that you must contemplate about having on hand and nurturing in your backyard”
You will be sure to pause if you've grown yarrow and wonder about its fascinating history as you roam around the garden, fawning over all of your plant buddies. In every region of the planet where it grows, yarrow has acquired a legendary reputation through myth and tradition. It is remarkable how the Kashmiri have come to form ties with yarrow that are very similar to those they have with most herbs.
According to legend, the Greek hero, Achilles' mother instilled him with yarrow while she tightly gripped his heels, leaving him with his one vulnerability— which, as we all know, were his heels. Achillea millefolium, the Latin name for yarrow, pays a modest tribute to Achilles in this legend.
