Genus: Potentilla

Yes, please on the cutting, Janette.
I have a potentilla but not this type.
Thank you. :o)

beautiful

Brave little flower.

Mine are as well - the Muscari always do appear at this time of year, though. Then they wait until early spring to flower. My Narcissi are also showing green tips - not too sure they should be!

Yes .. I have even seen grape hyacynths peeping through and bluebell tips which is odd because they don,t flower untill May normally ,, plus the daffodils , the snowdrops are peeping.. not that they come to any harm .. At least it warms you knowing that spring will return .....:0)

Plants seem to be confused at the moment Amy I have some daffodils peeping their heads through in some beds I think I will have to give them a good mulch, dont want them to suffer if we get a bad winter...

Janette I found a little flower like this as well it,s not in such good condition as yours though :0)

oh yes please janette

Thanks guys, would you like me to get you a cutting for next year ?

Good close-up.
Lovely colour. :o)

I like these Potentillas as well they flower for so long ,my Abbotswood has beeen flowering for ages , and still lots of new buds to open

great photo

beautiful photo spritzhenry

it's decided! .......ebay here i come! lol

i have had my eye on this one for ages! a few weeks ago i bought 'Twinkling star' which is a much shorter variety with peachy coloured flowers, i nearly bought this one instead, but now i have seen your pic's i think i might go back and get one of these as well.

Lovely colour.

So bright against the background, lovely flower and foliage, never seen one before.

I agree - my white one was new 3 years ago and it has hardly grown! I think we both might need advice on revving them up...

Yes it is thank you but i am a bit disappointed about how slow they grow, had one years ago, i remember now. Well i will need advice on how to keep it looking healthy. Yours is lovely but mine wont be unless i look after it. It's okay at the moment just come from the garden centre lol. Sue

yES I THINK THAT IS IT. I WILL GO AND CUT A LITTLE BIT OFF LATER AND COMPARE THE LEAVES. THANK YOU, WILL LET YOU KNOW. REGARDS SUE

Yes Potentillas are great value - the first shrub I ever bought was one.

This is just a little one but it still has lots of buds ready to open My Abbotswood is still flowering its heart out

Mine are just coming round for another flowering. I love them when they have lots on.

what a pretty yellow.

Cute Flower Janette:)

What lovely dark foliage.

What a pretty flower.

Aye, they're both in the Rosaceae family - the same family as Roses. Special plants.

Well you learn something new every day I never knew they where in the same family Buzzbee

Lovely picture - you can see why potentilla and strawberries are in the same family.

Such a Pretty Soft Pink :)
