Long-lasting colour!

Cheerful yellow! The little flowers of the standard cinquefoil 'Goldfinger' (Potentilla fruticosa) are a treat for the eyes. The flowers also bloom all summer and autumn! For even more enjoyment. The standard cinquefoil is perfectly at home on a patio or balcony, and can of course also be planted in the garden.
The fruticosa is fairly winter-hardy but cannot tolerate extreme frost. Position the plant in a sunny spot. The cinquefoil prefers well-drained soil. Keep the soil slightly moist at all times, however, the plant can also handle being dry for a short period.

Planting
Shrubby Cinquefoil 'Goldfinger' is easy to grow and can be planted in both regular garden soil or potting compost. Prepare a large hole in good, well-drained soil and plant the root ball at the appropriate depth in the hole. The top of the root ball should be just slightly below ground level. Fill the hole with soil and press firmly. Water well when planting. Shrubby Cinquefoil 'Goldfinger' makes a great combination plant. Its spiraling stem and the yellow flowers make the Shrubby Cinquefoil 'Goldfinger' an exceptional patio plant. The spherical crown, filled with star-shaped flowers, is very attractive in a flower pot. The bright yellow flowers are appealing when combined with white. Create a white and yellow corner on your patio. A successful combination with the Shrubby Cinquefoil 'Goldfinger' is the ball flower stem (Cephalanthes occidentalis), Dahlia 'Toto' and violet and yellow hanging lily 'Reines'. This plant is ideal for a rock garden or garden border.
Care
