Add vibrant, continuous sunshine to your garden with the Mango Tango Potentilla. This compact, award-winning shrub provides a long-lasting, tropical burst of colour that is surprisingly easy to grow, exceptionally cold-hardy, and blooms nonstop from late spring until the first heavy frost.
Key Features & Benefits
Unique Bicolor Blooms: The star feature of Mango Tango is its eye-catching flowers: vibrant, golden-yellow petals with a distinct, fiery orange-red center that resembles a tropical mango slice. This unique coloration creates a lively, festive display in the landscape.
Nonstop Flowering: Enjoy an incredibly long bloom season—it flowers continuously for months, providing reliable colour when many other shrubs have finished their show.
Tough & Resilient: A true Northern plant, the Potentilla is one of the toughest shrubs you can find. It is highly tolerant of drought, poor soils, urban pollution, and extreme cold (USDA Zones 2-7).
Compact & Tidy Habit: Growing to a manageable 2–3 feet in height and spread, its dense, mounding habit fits perfectly into small gardens, foundation plantings, rock gardens, or as a colourful low hedge.
Easy Care & Deer Resistant: This shrub is practically maintenance-free. It rarely needs pruning, resists most pests and diseases, and deer typically leave it alone.
