The smallest of all the plaques -- the size of a postage stamp -- this bronze could be worn as a piece of fine jewelry!

As a girl, Dawn dubbed the cinquefoil “Hearts and Stars.” She thought the yellow petals resembled hearts, with the gap between them outlining the underlying sepals in the shape of spring-green, five-pointed stars. She loves to sit beside a rushing mountain creek among great bunches of cinquefoil which overhang the banks.

Of the 30 species of Potentilla found in the Rocky Mountains, the Slender Cinquefoil (Potentilla gracilis) is one of the most widespread in the steppelands. They grow in the moist soil of meadows and open woods, and along streams from low valleys to around 8,000 feet. Potentillas are related to strawberries, and in some species the leaves look enough like strawberry leaves to be confused.

Some potentillas contain tannic acid and have been used medicinally as astringents. Deer, elk and other wild animals eat them, and since they withstand heavy grazing and trampling, their abundance or scarcity is often used to gauge range conditions.
