It is widespread and can be found growing in rocky soils at higher elevations in the mountains and foothills, as well as the dry prairies. The Pennsylvania Cinquefoil is capable of growing in cold, harsh conditions. The bright yellow flowers are found at the top of long stalks in small dense clusters and are ideal for attracting pollinators. WESTERN CHOKECHERRY QUICK FACTSPENNSYLVANIA CINQUEFOIL QUICK FACTS
