Potentilla – Bush Cinquefoil

Deciduous shrub. The name Potentilla comes from the Greek "potens," meaning powerful, from reputed medicinal qualities. Enjoy the summer-long flowering qualities of these selections and your deer will leave their taste testing to the drug companies. Cold hardy, low-maintenance, long-blooming and deer-resistant!

Care: Prefers moist, well drained soils but adapt to dry conditions once established. Prune about a third of the branches to the ground in late winter/early spring and apply a controlled-release fertilizer.
