These can be used as a shrub border that is extremely decorative or place them along a walkway or even your driveway. This ridiculously cute little shrub will amaze you with its abundant amount of blooms. That along with its fern like foliage gives it a very subtle look that still grabs your attention but is not harsh at all.
The Pink Beauty Potentilla spreads about 3 feet and grows about 3 foot tall. The bright green foliage provides you with a lovely backdrop for the flowers that begin to form in the latter part of Spring. In the Fall, the leaves turn a yellowish green and will continue blooms until the first frost. This little beauty attracts butterflies and enjoys full sunlight.
