    Customer photo review of Yarrow Roots - Mix

    Now, they all grew for me the past 2-3 years since I got them, and they definitely grew way bigger than the site said they would, which is no problem. I will probably have to relocate them to the back. This review is for the color. I chose the mix and I’m realizing now (2-3 years later 😏) as I’ve had a head scratching moment that they’ve been growing white the whole time and I had to double check my order from 2-3 years ago, that I actually picked the color mix. The picture looks chaotic. This is after I have cut a good portion of the flowers since it was getting too crowded and too many and I still have plenty and more to come (they make nice fillers for bouquets as you can see and had to put them somewhere) but yes, white and way bigger than I thought they’d be for the intended spot. That’s the only reason for the 4 stars.

    Yarrow Roots - Mix

    Store owner replied: Hello Amy J. Thank you for your review of Eden Brothers! We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as feedback like yours helps us improve our products and planting instructions. They can be challenging when planted in summer, because the summer heat places stress on them. Without ample time to develop a strong root system, before extreme weather sets in, the plant may struggle to thrive. Many times they do come back next year, or you might see them once it starts to cool a bit. After speaking with our Customer Service Team, it seems we were able to assist you and we’re glad we could offer you a resolution. We appreciate you reaching out and helping us do better!

    Was bummed to see no growth in my entire order. Considering I have many yarrow plants I divide and grow myself I know it wasn’t my lack of experience.

    Store owner replied: Hello Eryn. Thank you for your review of Eden Brothers! We are sorry these didn’t meet your expectations. Planting yarrow roots in June can be tricky, as the quick onset of summer heat may delay early growth, especially for cool-weather plants. Yarrow roots often take time to establish and might not like the warmer soil temperature of later planting. It is different for established plants than it is for new roots, that are more delicate. For better results, early spring is ideal for these. We're glad to hear our Customer Service Team was able to assist you further. Thanks again for taking the time to connect with us, and we wish you a wonderful and successful growing season!

    I was really hoping for this to be a successful post, but with how expensive these roots were and none of them grew, I sad, because I was excited for these!

    I ordered 4 roots and 2 of them sprouted. The ones that sprouted grew and flowered beautifully, a bit disappointing the others did not.
