CARE GUIDE

How to keep Duchesnea Chrysantha.

Light

Potentilla wallichiana is a sun-loving, herbaceous perennial that originates in open habitats and often thrives in meadows and grasslands. It prefers full sun but can also tolerate partial sun conditions.

Fertilizer

The best time to fertilize Potentilla wallichiana is in early spring, as it is coming out of dormancy and beginning active growth. Fertilizing supplies important nutrients for healthy development. Although Potentilla wallichiana has fairly low fertilizer requirements, an annual application can improve its survival and encourage better, longer-lasting flowers.
