Potentilla Aurea

Potentilla Aurea is a mat-forming potentilla, with single, bright yellow flowers from mid Summer to Autumn. It is a low maintenance plant, and well-suited to rock gardens.


Flowering

From Late Spring TO Mid Autumn

Potentilla flowers freely through the summer, often well into autumn. Cut back flower stems, except for P. fruticosa varieties, as flowers fade.

 

Planting

From Late Autumn TO Early Spring

Plant from autumn to spring in any moderately fertile and well-drained soil except P. crantzii, P. cuneata and P. nitida, which need a gritty, poor soil if they are to produce a good display of flowers. All potentillas prefer a sunny situation.
