Woolly Cinquefoil (Potentilla fragiformis Gold Sovereign) - Smaller perennial with very hairy ornamental leaves and large golden flowers in late Spring through July. Forms groundcovering mounds, about 12 - 16 inches tall and wide, with 1.5 inch flowers above the foliage. Usually only blooms for about 4 - 5 weeks; however, the leaves stay pretty for the whole season.  You may even want to cut back after blooming for fresh foliage. Full sun is the best; however, it will do fine in partial shade as well. Once established the plants do not need much water and they prefer well-drained soils (average, sandy, rocky, gritty soils of any pH).  In hot climates Woolly Cinquefoil appreciates some afternoon shade or half shade. Attracts honeybees and potentially other small pollinators as well, but not deer and rabbits.
