Sassy Summer Lemon Yarrow is an mat-forming herbaceous perennial with sturdy upright stems and deeply dissected aromatic dark grey-green foliage.  The flat clusters of small sunny yellow flowers soften as they mature and bloom throughout summer.  An excellent cut flower that retains color when dried.  Heat and drought tolerant.  Prefers full sun and well-drained soils.  Sassy Summer Lemon is sturdy enough that the stems do not need staking.
