	Potentilla - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Potentilla is a genus of about 500 species of annual, biennial and perennial herbs in the rose family Rosaceae, native to most of the Northern Hemisphere.
		The two species formerly treated as Potentilla palustris and Potentilla salesowianum are now separated into the genus Comarum, while Potentilla tridentata is transferred to Sibbaldiopsis as Sibbaldiopsis tridentata, and Potentilla arguta is similarly now separated into the genus Drymocallis as Drymocallis arguta.
		Potentilla is also related to the genera Geum and Dryas, and also to the strawberries in the genus Fragaria; Potentilla differs from the strawberries in having dry, inedible fruit (hence the name "barren strawberry" for some species).

	Potentilla (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Potentilla is one of the most readily available, low-growing shrubs in nurseries and garden centres.
		Many commonly grown shrubs also have exotic native habitats, but Potentilla fruticosa, from which many of the most popular varieties are derived, is native to a particular area of the Lake District, while also belonging to areas of north America and northern Asia.
		It’s worth noting that although the greatest profusion of flowers is achieved in an open, sunny situation, the new pink and red varieties do benefit from slight shade where the flower colour is not so liable to fade in direct sunlight.

		Potentilla 'Primrose Beauty' is a beauty with foliage that has a silky, grayish (almost silvery) cast that makes a wonderful background to display the soft, primrose-yellow flowers.
