Abstract
An ornamental, flowering shrub of the genus Potentilla fruticosa, having as its more important novel characteristic the ability to produce flowers which vary from pink to red in color, a color not heretofore known in this genus. (RHS Color Chart Red Group 53C to 48C). Fading occurs as in related Potentillas, but to a pale pink color, but this is believed to be reduced by partial shade and increased by very wet or very hot, dry conditions. The plant is more dwarf than its parent. Present size of parent plant is 40 cm. high, 85 cm. maximum diameter (at age of 31/2 years).
