We have one in our garden, with mixed results from year to year. Its
blooms are white, and it seems to flower in abundance early in the
season . However, in previous years it stops blooming after its first
display, with only an occasional flower showing here and there....How
should I care for this attractive shrub in order for it to bloom
throughout the summer. We are in zone 5, and the shrub is in a semi
sunny location. Right now it is in full bloom, but I fear for a repeat
performance. Much obliged ! Ben
Hi Ben,
Potentilla is a shrub which enjoys blazing hot sun, poor, chalky soil, and
minimal watering.
