Potentillas (cinquefoil) are perennials with pretty, strawberry-like flowers and leaves from spring to midsummer. They're perfect for adding colour to a well-drained herbaceous border.
Potentilla recta 'Warrenii', also known as sulphur cinquefoil, is a vigorous perennial that bears cheery yellow flowers on upright stems in summer. It is a good choice for the front of a sunny border.
Grow in moist but well drained soil. After flowering, cut back the flower stems to ground level.
