like the last ones these have, tall, vertical flower 
branches with up to 15 leaves preceding the delicate flowers 
[of the genera related to Potentilla, Agnmoniae and Poteria are terminal herbaceous 
plants and the leaf rosettes are perennial as in Pot. recta; Dvas is bushy and 
terminal; the weed like Rubi terminal but also produces subterranean buds from the 
lower leaves, which as far as I know never occurs in Potentilla; Gea is lateral with 
multi-leaved bloom branches( leaves spiraling around the stem; paired on the 
branches); Sjversjae (Gei subgenus)) similar but few leaves. Dalibardia fragargjdes 
lateral, only three top leaves on the bloom branches precede the flowers, the 
blooming branches do at first not go in opposite direction from the leaf rosettes.] 
In Torrey and Gray the Rosacee has not yet been completed or I would have preferred to 
assign them there.
