Pruning potentilla is easy! Kristina with Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Shrubs will show you how to prune and give this easy-care plant a rejuvenation prune before spring.

Top things to remember when pruning potentilla:

- To encourage even growth, prune the entire plant in a rounded, ball shape (shaping isn't necessary if you like a more natural look)
- Rejuvenation prune every 3 to 5 years
- Take out 1/3 of the thickest branches back to the ground, and leave the remaining 2/3
- Evenly disperse cuts around the plant to ensure there aren't large gaps in foliage cover
