I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

Winston Churchill


Native Potentilla

Potentilla fruiticosa

The parent stock plants were collected in the flats near the Saskatchewan River between Nordegg and Abraham lake.

From appearance native potentilla is a slightly smaller version of the yellow cultivars. I brought back 5 plants, potted them here, and used the prunings to strike a couple dozen cuttings. Most of the cuttings showed roots by leaf fall last autumn.

Quantities this year will be very small. As will be the size. Limit 1 per customer for the curious. Twice standard pricing.
