Achillea (Yarrow) Seed Germination: Surface Sow, Light Required

Why Your Saved Yarrow Seeds Didn't Sprout

Yarrow seeds need light to germinate.

  1. Sprinkle tiny seeds on soil surface; press gently—do not cover.
  2. Keep at 70–75°F.
  3. Germinate in 2–3 weeks.

Harvesting Tips

  • Wait for flowers to fully dry; shake over a paper plate.
  • Store in sealed jar/bag, cool, dark, dry.
  • Hybrid varieties may produce sterile seed.

Surface sowing is the key; covering seeds prevents germination.
