Arc-en-Ciel Potentilla
Potentilla nepalensis. We love the way a perennial Potentilla can tumble over the edge of containers or walkways with charming foliage that reminds us of strawberry plants. ‘Arc En Ciel’ produces a multitude of ruffled blooms from early summer through fall, in shades of deep red and primrose yellow. Easy to grow and delightfully different! No.1 root. Height 10-12".
Spring Planting: this product will be shipped late April through May according to hardiness zone.

Growing Information
Upon Arrival:
It is very important to plant as soon as possible after you receive them. If it is necessary to store them for a short time before planting them, open the plastic bags. If the roots appear dry, soak them for a few hours in warm water. Store in slightly moist peat moss in a cold, but not freezing location until you can plant. They can also be placed in pots of soil if planting will be delayed for more than 2 weeks. Use any peat-based potting soil and pots with drainage holes.
Soak bare-root perennials in water for a few hours before planting. Unless otherwise specified, bare-root perennials are usually planted with the crown (where the shoots meet the roots) an inch below the soil surface. Firm soil gently to eliminate air pockets and water in well. Mark the area clearly since it may be a while before the plant shows itself.
Planting:
Grow in full sun or light shade in poor to moderately rich, well-drained soil. Plant 12-18" apart with the crown just under the soil surface.
Growing:
Divide clumps in spring or fall if they outgrow their space.
