Potentilla Pink Beauty (9cm)

The “Pink Beauty” Potentilla is a gorgeous, decorative plant which contrasts its bright pink flowers with its blue-green leaves. It is a deciduous shrub which tends to grow into a spherical shape.

Once they are established, they need very little care or maintenance. They do prefer soils that are well-drained and should not be planted in areas near where water collects or forms after rain. They are also very good for low-water or rock garden installations.

It stands out as a landscape plant because of its delicate appearance, but contrasts that with its ability to survive and thrive along with other larger decorative yard plants. Also beneficial, is that while deer tend to stay away from the plant, butterflies do enjoy the many flowers it provides for nectar and shelter.

Once the flowers open in late spring/early summer, they last for several months until the frosts of autumn, allowing you to enjoy this wonderful landscaping beauty.

They also do a proper job being arranged in borders or accenting and accompanying hedge rows. Other added benefits that relate to their hardiness is that they do well in urban environments and are generally disease and pest free.
