Hoary cinquefoil
Potentilla argentea
Hoary cinquefoil is a tough, low-growing perennial that tolerates poor, well-drained soils and thrives in sunny spots. It requires minimal watering once established and needs little fertilizing thanks to its adaptation to lean conditions. Its cheerful yellow flowers attract pollinators throughout summer and it makes an excellent ground cover for difficult dry areas.
