Potentilla fruticosa 'Pink Beauty'
Potentilla fruticosa ‘Pink Beauty’
Also called shrubby cinquefoil or bush cinquefoil, Potentilla is one of the most popular landscape shrubs in our climate. It has a long bloom time, exceptional hardiness, and low maintenance. This sturdy plant stands up to drought, air pollution, and salt, and has earned a reputation of being veritably indestructible by tolerating a wide range of growing conditions. Plants can get sparse without 6 or more hours of sunlight. Pair with spring blooming bulbs to screen bare branches until leaves emerge. This compact variety produces pink flowers that mature to white and hold up well through the season.
