|discussion=<p>Of conservation concern.</p><!--
--><p>Variety proxima is the primary phase of Potentilla concinna in the mountains of southwestern Colorado, Nevada, and Utah. Some alpine collections from New Mexico are referable to var. proxima, and isolated populations also occur in the San Francisco Peaks of Arizona (at higher elevations than otherwise sympatric var. concinna) and the White Mountains of California. Specimens from Montana keying here are provisionally placed in P. macounii.</p><!--
--><p>The most distinctive feature of var. proxima is the elongate flowering stems, which are usually over twice as long as the leaves. Leaves tend to be more sparsely cottony and less bicolored than in the typical variety, the central leaflet is more often petiolulate, and flowers are commonly somewhat smaller. Collections from southwestern Utah and adjacent Nevada, including the type of Potentilla proxima, commonly have subpalmate leaves; elsewhere leaves are rarely or scarcely subpalmate.</p>
