Achillea
Achillea  is a group of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae described as a genus by Linnaeus in 1753.
The common name "yarrow" is usually applied to Achillea millefolium, but may also be used for other species within the genus.
These plants typically have frilly, hairy, aromatic leaves. The plants show large, flat clusters of small flowers at the top of the stem. The flowers can be white, yellow, orange, pink or red and are generally visited by many insects, and are thus characterised by a generalised pollination system.
