Blooming through the summer, its five-petaled flowers rise above a low mat of strawberry-like foliage, creating a soft, natural look in prairies, pollinator gardens, rock gardens, and native plant landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hardy North American native is an excellent choice for low-water gardens, meadow plantings, and erosion-prone slopes. Its nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects, while its dense growth helps suppress weeds and stabilize soil. Once established, Prairie Cinquefoil requires little maintenance and returns year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlant Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNative perennial wildflower with bright white, five-petaled blooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrought tolerant once established, ideal for xeriscapes and low-water gardens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-growing, spreading habit that works well as a ground cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdaptable to poor, rocky, or sandy soils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Potentilla arguta (also known as Drymocallis arguta)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Herbaceous perennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, sandy, rocky, or loamy soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low to medium; drought tolerant once established\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clump-forming, spreading ground cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late spring to summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 to 36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Hardiness Zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 to 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 to 18 inches apart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSow Prairie Cinquefoil seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow in fall for natural cold stratification. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface without covering deeply, as light aids germination. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge, which typically takes 14 to 30 days. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves, transplant them outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help roots establish, then reduce watering as plants become drought tolerant. Prairie Cinquefoil benefits from occasional division every few years to maintain vigor. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or leave seed heads for birds and self-seeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 Prairie Cinquefoil seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67739799290166,"sku":"EDNA-684","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.8105382571_m0ah.jpg?v=1792116136","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/prairie-cinquefoil-seeds-native-white-wildflower-drought-tolerant-100-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
