Gold Drop Potentilla
Gold Drop Potentilla is a deciduous shrub that does best in full sun and will flower all summer if trimmed in late June or July along with fertilizer and water.
It is best to thin this plant in late winter by cutting back about one third of the stems near the ground (older stems only). Potentilla also serves as a butterfly nectar source and a host for butterfly larvae.
The Potentilla' Gold Drop', Potentilla fruticosa 'Gold Drop', also known as Buttercup Shrub or Shrubby Cinquefoil, displays attractive, yellow buttercup flowers all summer.
