Potentilla tridentata 'Nuuk'

Potentilla tridentata 'Nuuk' is an evergreen mat-forming plant with shiny leaves and small white flowers all Summer from late Spring. It makes a good groundcover plant. The foliage turns red in the colder months.


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.
