Yarrow Flower C/S

Botanical Name: Achillea millefolium

Country of Origin: Bulgaria

English Name: Yarrow Flower C/S

French Name: Fleurs d’Achillée Millefeuille Coupées

Also Known As: Common Yarrow

Part Used: Flowering tops (flowers with small portions of tender stems) of Achillea millefolium

Description: Yarrow Flower C/S is prepared from the flowering tops of Achillea millefolium, a hardy perennial plant native to Europe and western Asia and widely naturalized across North America and other temperate regions. The plant typically grows between 30 and 90 centimetres tall, forming upright, slender stems with finely divided, feathery green leaves that give the plant its characteristic soft, fern-like appearance. During late spring through summer, flat-topped clusters of small white to pale cream flowers develop at the ends of the stems, creating dense, umbrella-shaped blooms. Harvesting is carried out when flowers are fully open to ensure consistent colour, structure, and botanical quality.

After harvesting, the flowering tops are carefully cleaned to remove natural debris. Drying is performed using controlled air or low-temperature methods to preserve the flowers’ natural pale colour and delicate structure. Once dried, the material is cut and sifted into uniform fragments, producing lightweight, free-flowing pieces that include visible flower heads, petals, and fine stem sections. This process maintains the botanical identity of Achillea millefolium while creating a consistent cut suitable for blending and infusion.

The finished Yarrow Flower C/S displays a soft off-white to light beige colour with delicate floral pieces and fine stems, offering a crisp texture and stable appearance during storage. The cut and sifted format allows for easy handling, accurate measuring, and uniform blending across applications.

Uses: Yarrow Flower C/S is commonly used in tea-style infusions, herbal blends, and botanical preparations where dried flowering material is preferred. It is also suitable for cosmetic formulations, bath products, botanical sachets, craft projects, natural colouring applications, and educational collections demonstrating perennial flowering plant morphology. The cut and sifted format allows for precise portioning, easy blending with other botanicals, and versatile use in both home and professional environments, offering consistent quality and visually identifiable floral fragments.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
