Potentilla Red Ace
Shrubby Cinquefoil
OUT OF STOCK
Potentilla 'Red Ace' (Shrubby Cinquefoil) is a bright and cheerful shrub which produces poppy red free-flowering single blooms from as early as May through to September. The pretty flowers have a bright yellow centre that contrasts beautifully against the vivid red petals, where these delightful flowers sit atop bushy green foliage that really make the flowers stand out. A low maintenance shrub which is rarely the target of pests or disease, this is the perfect addition for even the most novice of gardener. A hardy variety, it will lose its leaves during the winter and grow fresh foliage the following year. Reach a height and spread of 60-90cm, they look great when planted along paths, the front of borders or when grown in containers alongside contrasting colours of Potentilla. 15-20cm tall plant, supplied in a 9cm pot.

Pruning
Mid Spring |
Potentilla shrubs are an easy subject to grow. For best results they should be planted in a sunny location, in light (well drained) soil.
Light pruning can be done in March, but is often not necessary for Potentilla. A fantastic choice for borders, or rockeries.
