Achillea 'Strawberry Seduction' has strawberry-red flowers with gold centers clustered together in large flat-topped flower heads 2 to 4 inches across. It blooms starting in early summer and continues into the fall. As the flowers age, they fade to buff yellow. This is a compact plant 18 to 24 inches high with gray- green, fernlike foliage. It is a member of the SEDUCTION™ Series from the Netherlands. It is attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds and resistant to deer, rabbits, and drought. This is a favorite cut flower and is also excellent as a dried flower.
