Achillea millefolium, known commonly as yarrow, native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere in Asia, Europe, and North America. Other common names for this species include nosebleed plant, old man's pepper, devil's nettle, sanguinary, milfoil, soldier's woundwort, thousand-leaf, and thousand-seal. In ancient times it was used to staunch wounds from battle as wild yarrow was readily available near the battlefield. This is a cultivar known as "Paprika". (some info from Wikipedia)
