  • Description

  • Notes

One of the best white-flowered forms of bush potentilla, 'Abbotswood' has brilliant white flowers all summer long. The shrub grows to about 2 feet tall and 3 feet wide, making it well suited to a perennial, shrub, or foundation border. Its green foliage and clear white flowers makes it a nice foil for other plants.
