What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Add vivid color and timeless beauty to your garden with Pink Yarrow Seeds (Achillea millefolium var. rubra). This heirloom perennial herb produces clusters of reddish-pink blooms above soft, feathery foliage, creating a striking contrast in borders, wildflower gardens, and cottage landscapes. Beyond its ornamental appeal, red yarrow is a traditional medicinal herb and a pollinator favorite, blending natural beauty with practical value.

Vibrant Blooms with Heritage Charm

Red or pink yarrow brings rich color and historical depth to any landscape. Its long-lasting flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects while maintaining drought tolerance and resilience once established. A perfect choice for gardeners who appreciate heirloom varieties with enduring charm.

Traditional Herbal Uses

For centuries, yarrow has been a staple in herbal medicine, valued for teas, tinctures, and salves. Growing Achillea millefolium var. rubra connects you to that heritage — offering both visual delight and the potential for homemade herbal remedies.

Easy to Grow & Drought-Tolerant

Pink yarrow thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it one of the most resilient herbs you can grow. Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost, or start indoors for earlier blooms. Light aids germination, so press seeds gently into the soil surface without covering. Some gardeners use cold stratification to improve germination rates, though it’s optional. Once established, this perennial spreads naturally and returns year after year.

Why Gardeners Love Pink Yarrow Seeds:

  • Produces vibrant reddish-pink flower clusters
  • Attracts bees, butterflies, and pollinators
  • Traditional herb for teas, tinctures, and salves
  • Hardy, drought-tolerant, and long-blooming
  • Ideal for cottage, wildflower, or apothecary gardens
  • Backed by a trusted USA family seed company

How to Grow:

  1. Sow seeds on the soil surface after frost or start indoors 6–8 weeks earlier.
  2. Press lightly — do not cover; light is needed for germination.
  3. Keep moist until seedlings emerge (10–21 days).
  4. Transplant or thin to 12–18 inches apart.
  5. Enjoy abundant blooms from late spring to summer, year after year.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques.

You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.

How do I know my seeds are fresh?

Every seed packet includes a "packed for" date, and we germination test each seed lot before packaging to ensure you receive viable, high-quality seeds that are ready to grow.

Are your seeds treated?

No, we do not pre-treat our farmer seeds. All of our garden seeds for sale are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.

In what zones can I grow your seeds?

The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.

What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?

Most seeds remain viable for 3 to 5 years or longer when stored properly. Check your seed packet for specific varieties. For best results, keep your seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store them in an airtight container in a consistent temperature environment—a refrigerator or cool basement works well. Proper storage helps maintain germination rates and extends seed life well beyond the packed date.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?

The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.
