Potentilla nipponica is
a perennial herb inhabiting sunny, dry riverbeds or sandy soils,
branching at the bases to spread on all sides. Leaves are
imparipinnate compounds composed of 7-13 leaflets; the leaflets are
cleft in a feather-like way, and the backsides are densely
white-haired. Flowers are yellow, 1-1.5cm in diameter; sepals and
accessory calyx lobes are the same size and look white because of
dense fluffs. Bloom time: June-August. |
