Potentilla rupestris (aka Drymocallis rupestris) - Five-petaled white cupped cinquefoil flower with yellow central sexual parts supported on pink-tinted stems share their simple beauty during much of the summer. Small gray-green leaves are pinnate, creased and heavily serrate. The nativity of Siberian Tea is broad - from Scandanavia south through Europe (including Britain) to Spain, western and central Asia into Siberia. Also known as Rock Cinquefoil, this will make a handsome rock garden candidate, mounding drifts in a perennial landscape backed with grasses, daylilies or a group of taller plants to your liking. As a ground cover at the base of a low maintenance shrubbery in full sun it would be very handsome... it offers so many design possibilities. Full sun in well-drained average ground, scrabbly-gritty soils a plus. It is tolerant of some shade. The deer don't like it. Established, potted Rock Cinquefoil from seed or division.
