Description

Potentilla fruticosa 'Abbotswood' is a deciduous shrub that produces a mass of white flowers with yellow hearts, measuring 3 cm to 4 cm (1.2 in to 1.6 in). The flowers complement the beautiful green foliage, which is reminiscent of a strawberry bush.

It is ideal for creating a colourful mound in a flower bed.

Its abundant and long-lasting flowering, from June to September, and its robustness are appreciated in low hedges, flower beds, or mixed borders.

With a compact habit, it requires no maintenance.
