Potentilla nepalensis ‘Ron McBeath’


Nepal Cinquefoil

 USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.440.080


There are several non-shrubby Cinquefoils that are wonderful additions to the sunny perennial border. Plants form a low mound of strawberry-like leaves, bearing branches of cup-shaped flowers, beginning in early summer. This compact form has blooms of cherry pink, with a contrasting crimson eye. Plants should be sheared back after blooming, to rejuvenate the foliage. Division may be done in early spring or in the fall. Worth considering for mixed tubs or containers. Best in full sun.
