¿'MONARCH'S VELVET'
Massed heads of deep raspberry red flowers shading to a crimson velvet centre. Long flowering and long lived. An excellent form of Potentilla thurberi.Deciduous, clump-forming, herbaceous perennial grown for divided foliage and long stems of rich red flowers.
Useful for ground cover and growing amongst other perennials and shrubs, especially where shorter lived plants, such as some bulbs, may die back after flowering.
Although this plant isn't so attractive when planted alone, it mingles extremely well with other perennials and the shorter ornamental grasses.
¿Attractive to bees. Habit - low growing. The central plant is mound forming and sends out long flowering stems. H: up to 30cm S: 1m. Stems - lax, round, hairy, green tinged with dark pink. Leaves - lobed and serrated, like a strawberry leaf. Mid-green.
Flowers - cup-shaped, 5-petalled flowers in rich crimson, darker towards the base. Flowers are borne on long lax stems, either solitary or loosely clustered. The flowering stems have a habit of leaning against other plants and using them for support so that the flowers can appear up to 1m from the ground.
