The plant arrived two weeks ago, and at this time of year, it's just branches with a few dark, shrivelled leaves. It seems this is its normal appearance in winter. I recommend buying this plant in spring.

Description
Easy to grow, the Potentilla fruticosa 'Pink Paradise' forms a small compact bush covered in late spring with an abundance of pale pink flowers until the end of summer.
A bushy variety, the Potentilla fruticosa 'Pink Paradise' is a small shrub with modest dimensions, 1.20m (3ft 11in) in height and 80cm (31.5in) in width. It flowers from the month of June until the end of summer. The flowers measure 3 to 4cm (1.6in) in diameter, similar to strawberry flowers, they are very rounded and pale pink with a cluster of golden stamens in the centre. Abundant in late spring, the flowering can be slowed down during the hot summer temperatures. The flowers stand out distinctly from its beautiful dark green foliage.
A Hardy bush and very easy to grow, the Potentilla fruticosa has great adaptability; it grows in the sun or partial shade, likes well-drained soil and can tolerate heavy soils that are not waterlogged, poor or rich.
Due to its great tolerance, the 'Pink Paradise' Potentilla will grow almost anywhere; along a pathway or in a flower bed, on a slope, at the base of a hedge or simply on a terrace in a pot. It pairs well with Achillea millefolium 'Lilac Beauty', Allium 'Globemaster', Symphoricarpos 'Magical Candy' and perennial Geranium 'Dragon Heart'. With a compact habit, it requires no maintenance other than pruning the faded flowers with shears at the end of winter.

Planting and care
Plant Potentilla fruticosa 'Pink Paradise' in a perfectly sunny location in neutral to chalky soil, even rocky, and well-drained. It is perfectly hardy and tolerates both frost and drought well, but will flower more abundantly if the soil retains some moisture. You can cut back the stems after flowering, and prune it in spring, in March or April.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
