Ah yes, Potentilla verna nana!!! An excellent choice!!!

I live in Pittsburgh, PA and I'm looking to replace a steep stretch of grass that is difficult to mow with a low, 1" to 2", annual ground cover with yellow flowers. I'd like the flowers to stick around spring to early fall. Is there such a beast?
