Yes, you should be able to find yarrow - botanical name Achillea - in any garden center/nursery in season. Most of the popular garden varieties are hybrids and come in a wide range of colors - white, yellow, various shades of pink, orangey-rust and red. I tend to prefer the more intense colors so I like 'Paprika' (red), 'Terra Cotta' (rusty orange) and 'Moonshine' (golden yellow). You can also plant from seed but it will take a season before the plants bloom.

Yarrow prefers a hot, dry location and with pretty lean (unenriched) soil

I love my yarrow and it's a Nebraska native. The Native Americans used it to stop the flow of blood--hopefully I never have to try that. If you're interested in white or pink I can send you some plants. I plan to harvest seed from the yellow yarrow at the hospital when the blooms die and the seed arrives.

I read somewhere to be sure and plant white flowers. HOW BORING I thought...but they brighten up the flower bed so much. I have yarrow in several areas--cottage garden, coneflower garden. Long bloomer and hardy. If it spreads you just yank out what you don't want. Doesn't spread too fast. Pollinators love it.

I think the white flowering one is medicinal. It spread quickly down here, but is very easy to pluck a piece out of the ground and root it for sharing or to sell it.
