Potentilla fruticosa Pink Beauty

Pink Beauty Potentilla

Pink Beauty Potentilla forms a low, leafy mound dotted with soft pink flowers. Each bloom has a pale center surrounding yellow stamens, while the small, divided green leaves give the shrub a fine texture.

Its flowering season extends through summer and into early autumn. The combination of a modest size and a long display makes it useful where a border needs repeated patches of color without a tall shrub dominating the planting.

Choose sun or partial shade and soil that drains well. Place it toward the front of a mixed border, or repeat it beside a path with enough room for the branches to form their natural mound.
