Achillea millefolium (Yarrow) MG CC

Can there be a plant any more useful? I kinda doubt it. Is there anything easier to grow or that can possibly outcompete your lawn. It's right up there. It is also a useful nectar source for ladybeetles and is said to speed up your compost. Just be sure they get a full day of sun, water when you plant and then all should be good. Will spread underground and self seed.
