description for "Cinquefoil: Potentilla fruticosa 'Yellow Gem'"
Color is everywhere when this Cinquefoil is planted. Its eye catching ruffled yellow flowers are contrasted with its red stems and gray/green foliage. This gorgeous plant will first show color in late Spring and continue to frost. Its consistent growth habit make it an ideal choice for borders, under existing shrubs or hedges. Hardy in zones 2-9.
