A year of flowers #38: Cinquefoil

  

Potentilla gracilis

The common name for this is actually "Five-fingered cinquefoil," which strikes me as odd because that means "Five-fingered five finger."  All of my cinquefoil began with collecting seeds from from two spots nearby where there was a ton of it growing, the corner of a pasture in my neighborhood and a spot of railroad land in between Palouse and Garfield.
