Specialty Definition: Potentilla

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

The Potentilla is a popular perennial shrub that is found in many gardens.

Different varities of potentilla can be quite variable, but they are all hardy plants that produce small flowers for much of the summer. It is popular throughout the United States and southern Canada and is also grown in Europe. It is very often used by cities and businesses for landscaping because of its hardiness and low maintenance.

It is also popular because it is a perennial that has flowers for almost the entire summer. The flowers are most often yellow or white, but varities exist for most colours. The flowers are always small, flat, and round, but there are many dozens on each bush.
