Read about Potentilla gordonii in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Potentilla gordonii, Baill. (Ivesia Gordonii, Torr. & Gray. Horkelia Gordonii, Hook.). Caudex stout, woody, and cespitose: sts. erect, 4 - 12 in. high, and; like the lvs., glandular-pubescent or glabrous: lvs. pinnate, mostly basal, numerous; lfts. 10-20, divided into 3 - 5 oblong or linear segms.; cauline lvs. few. very small: fls. small and inconspicuous, in a crowded cyme; petals yellow, spatulate, shorter than the sepals; stamens 5 - 20, inserted on the edge of the cup-shaped receptacle at a distance from the carpels; style filiform, basal. Subalpine W. U. S. Forms dense mats in dry soil. This species belongs properly to Horkelia (a genus apparently not known to the gardeners) and is generically distinct from Potentilla because of the more deeply cup-shaped receptacle. It is, however, known in the trade as a potentilla. CH
