24” x 30” wide, (cutting propagated). This Galaxy hybrid selection is renowned
for its large clusters of bright red flowers. Each individual flower in the
cluster also has a distinctive yellow eye. As is the case with all Yarrows,
the flowers fade as they age; “Paprika” fades from red to pink. Planting in
afternoon shade will slow the fading a bit. Adding to its good looks is the
fern-like deep green foliage. “Paprika” is everblooming with regular
deadheading and is best used in the perennial border where it enjoys enriched
soil and regular watering. Companion plants include Coreopsis ‘Sunray’ and the
blue Salvias. Zones 3-8. |
