In a field where hawkweed
and daisies run wild
they catch my eye —
feather sashes with
perfect snow petal tops.
Only a few appear
each year
as they have
since ancient times.

It is said that the Greek hero, Achilles, used Yarrow to dress the wounds of his soldiers. The Latin name is Achillea Millefolium, also known as Ladies mantle, Milfoil and Millefolium.

Thanks Denis… I take close ups of parts to help with identification … I love the ferny leaves and fuzzy stem so much I decided to share it.
