About Achillea setacea Waldst. & Kit.

Achillea setacea Waldst. & Kit. is a species of the Achillea genus. Plants in this genus typically have frilly, hairy, aromatic leaves. They produce large, flat clusters of small flowers at the top of the stem. Flowers can be white, yellow, orange, pink or red. These flowers are generally visited by many insects, giving the genus a generalised pollination system. The genus Achillea is primarily native to Europe, temperate regions of Asia, and North America. In ecology, Achillea species serve as food plants for the larvae of some Lepidoptera species. Achillea species and their cultivars are popular garden plants.
