🌱 How to Care for Pink Yarrow to Prevent Grey Mould?
💧 How to Water
Water deeply but infrequently; allow soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering causes weak, floppy stems and increases risk of root rot.
☀️ Lighting
Needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for compact growth and abundant blooms; too little light causes leggy, weak stems.
🪴 Ideal Soil
Plant in average to poor, well-draining soil. Rich, fertile soil produces excessive, floppy foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
