Sulphur cinquefoil
Potentilla recta
Sulphur cinquefoil is a tough, sun-loving perennial that tolerates poor soils and requires minimal care once established. Plant in a sunny spot and water deeply but infrequently, as this plant is well-adapted to drier conditions. It spreads readily and may become weedy in some regions, so deadhead spent flowers to limit self-seeding.
