Description:
If the colour white turns your crank, then this is the plant for you! Abbotswood blooms all summer long and although it is not fragrant is a sight to behold as sidewalk border, low hedge or the front row of a multi-row planting. The Abbotswood has a rounded form that grows into a 3ft by 3ft ball.

Like all potentilla, the plants are extremely hardy and virtually maintenance free and produce flowers from mid June until freeze up Potentilla is excellent as a border or low hedge that takes minimal maintenance. It grows well in nearly all types of soil.

Fascinating Foliage Facts:

Most of the potentilla varieties are derived from the collection of Reginald Farrer, a British Botanist who collected specimens from China, Mongolia, and Tibet during his expeditions in the early 1900s.
