Western Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is a native flowering plant found across the United States.

In some instances it grows so quickly and abundantly that it takes over areas, making itself into a nuisance weed.

Yarrow makes a good butterfly plant, attracting a variety of species wherever it grows.
