Cinquefoil (Potentilla Nepalensis) - Perfect for the cottage garden setting or the border of a perennial bed. It's a bright bloomer for long periods of time. It will establish nicely using Cinquefoil flower seed. Once it's established, it's a carefree beauty that will offer a lovely color and addition to the garden. Cinquefoil spreads slightly. After the growing season, cut it back to tidy it up. Sow the flower seeds either indoors or outdoors to establish Cinquefoil. For Cinquefoil, it usually takes a second growing season, after being sown from flower seeds, to produces blooms.
