Purple Marsh Cinquefoil

Description

Formerly known as Potentilla palustris, this cinquefoil loves to grow in wet, marshy soil. Sometimes can be found growing in the water, with leaves floating on the surface. Unlike other cinquefoils that you may be familiar with, this one has gorgeous, wine-red blooms. It is, however, adaptable to moist garden soil. It can actually dry out a bit, just don’t grow it in dry soil. If you can grow Lobelia cardinalis, you should be able to grow this one as well.
