Potentilla nipponica is a perennial herb that inhabits
sunny, dry riverbeds or sandy soils, branching at the base 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.
