Shrubby Cinquefoil Happy Face Hearts®, Cinquefoil Happy Face Hearts®, Potentilla fruticosa ‘SMNPPS’ PPAF
Compact, Potentilla fruticosa Happy Face Hearts® (Shrubby Cinquefoil) is a bushy deciduous shrub of upright habit boasting masses of large, pink, flowers from late spring to the first frosts. Each flower starts out with a cheery yellow center which then feathers into white for an apple blossom-like effect. The blossoms are so profuse that they literally smother the plant. The flowers contrast nicely against the foliage mound of small, pinnate, bright green leaves. Noted for its extremely long blooming season, Shrubby Cinquefoil is an incredibly tough plant, withstanding drought in the summer as well as cold temperatures in winter. It is also one of the easiest plants to care for. A first-class shrub that is perfect for informal hedging, or for sunny borders.
