Shrubby Cinquefoil 'Pink Beauty', Cinquefoil 'Pink Beauty', Potentilla fruticosa Lovely Pink, Potentilla fruticosa 'Lovely Pink'
Award-winning Potentilla fruticosa ‘Pink Beauty’ (Shrubby Cinquefoil) is a bushy deciduous shrub of upright habit boasting masses of clear pink flowers from late spring to the first frosts. Resembling wild roses, the blossoms are so profuse that they literally smother the plant. They fade to a whiter shade in hot summers and contrast nicely against the foliage mound of small, pinnate, dark 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.
