Plant Identification
« on: August 18, 2017, 08:24:32 PM »
These images were sent to me for identification - seed received as Ourisia coccinea from one of the seed exchanges -which it certainly is not! Any ideas?

Does Potentilla (Sibbaldiopsis) tridentata come in a yellow form?

It is not unlike Potentilla eriocarpa but the leaflets are not quite the same.

Only white flowered Maggi and the leaves are different, folioles ending with 3 teeths.
