Potentilla aurea is such a delightful little plant! This compact perennial forms a lovely mat and bursts with cheerful golden-yellow flowers that really brighten up the garden. With its soft, silvery-green leaves, it’s the perfect addition to rock gardens, alpine beds, or sunny borders, giving a splash of color to your low-growing planting schemes.

These charming five-petalled yellow flowers show off from late spring to early summer, transforming your outdoor space. The plant spreads out nicely, creating a dense, low-growing mat that’s both attractive and functional. It thrives beautifully in rockeries, gravel gardens, and even as edging along sunny paths.

One of the best parts? Potentilla aurea loves full sun and does well in well-drained soils, including those poorer or stony types. Once established, it’s also drought-tolerant, making it a fantastic choice for low-maintenance gardens. Plus, it might even gently self-seed in the right conditions, which helps fill in gaps naturally and keeps your garden looking full and lush.

Fully hardy in the UK, this little gem can handle frost and cold winters with ease. It typically reaches a height of about 15 cm (0.5 ft) and can spread to about 30 cm (1 ft). If you're looking for a cheerful, resilient plant to add to your garden, Potentilla aurea could be just the one for you!

Growing Information

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

What our customers say

"Very impressed with the quality of leek and broad bean seeds you sent. Excellent germination and look forward to a bumper crop. Will certainly be back."

E. Smyth

“I bought all my seeds, potatoes, etc. from your catalogue last year for my new ‘larger’ vegetable garden. I have to say I have never had such success in the garden. The germination was excellent; the quality of plant stock and produce is superb."

Sadie

“I am compelled to write to you and your staff for the exemplary service provided by your company, in an age where the word and term ‘service’ has lost its meaning.”
