Cinquefoil 'Flamenco', Five Fingers 'Flamenco'
Very free flowering, Potentilla ‘Flamenco’ (Cinquefoil) is a clump-forming, herbaceous perennial boasting showy, blood-red, 5-petaled flowers adorned with a dark center from late spring to late summer. Produced in abundance, the blossoms contrast nicely against the foliage mound of strawberry-like, medium-green leaves. Noted for its extremely long blooming season, this Cinquefoil is one of the easiest plants to care for. It is perfect for adding color to a sunny border.
