Soft pink blooms draw butterflies! The Pink Beauty Potentilla (Potentilla fruticosa 'Pink Beauty') is an ornamental, deciduous shrub known for its prolific blooming. When you notice the first scattering of delightful pink flowers with yellow centers, you'll be pleased. However, soon you'll be overwhelmed as the adorable pink blossoms continue to cover your shrub and remain all summer long.
Your Pink Beauty Potentilla is a cute little shrub that will surprise you with its abundance of blooms. It also has fern-like, compound foliage that together with the pink flowers softens its appearance and sets it off from other harsher landscape plantings. Its luscious, bright green foliage provides the perfect backdrop to the flowers that begin to form in late spring.
Your Pink Beauty Potentilla's foliage turns a lively shade of yellow-green in the fall, continuing to accent the pink blooms that will persist until the first frost. This shrub really packs a lot of beauty into its small size and isn't at all demanding of your time or energy. The Pink Beauty grows about around 2 feet tall with an equal spread so it's very space-saving and perfect for modern pocket gardens, courtyards and urban environments!
Planting and Application:
You'll love having these small shrubs to brighten up your landscape! The compact, mounding form makes it a perfect choice as a border, low hedge, or accent plant in your garden! They make great fillers in mixed borders or places where you need some color. You'll adore the cheerful, pink flowers. Even containers and planters gain a brilliant little thriller and filler!
Recommended on many Firescaping/Fire-wise lists, Potentilla becomes a valuable plant in areas where firescapes are required for safety. Potentillas are well-known for their drought and cold tolerance in the full sun garden!
Plant a few as a decorative shrub border or along a walkway and butterfly garden. Perfect foundation plant for those hot sunny sides of the home. Use Pink Beauty liberally along your front walk or along the front of your house. They'll never grow out of bounds or up high enough to cover your windows. Instead, your house will sparkle with these rich flowers that draw bees and butterflies!
Pink Beauty can be used near the front of a mixed garden bed and add bright little cheerful blooms to your garden! Plant multiples in a gentle zig-zag or curve in front of larger shrubs or evergreen trees. By doing this, you'll create a "river" of color. If you are looking for a way to tie all your garden plantings together, simply use this easy shrub in each bed.

#ProPlantTips for Care:
It's hardy and tolerant of a wide variety of conditions, mildew resistant, and does well in cold climates. It's tolerant of poor soils and urban environments. This sun lover will definitely perform best with full sun. Give it at least 6 hours of sunlight a day. Plant in areas with good drainage, but Pink Beauty is not particular about soil and can tolerate a wide range of soil types.
Once established, this plant requires little water. Give new plants regular water during the first season, plus a layer of mulch over the soil surface. In extreme heat, we say that it's a good idea to protect your investment with a bit of supplemental water. Watch your plant for any sign of stress. Prune after flowering to keep plants in featured areas looking manicured and neat. Cut them back hard in late winter when needed to rejuvenate them.
