Potentilla sp. for ID ABAUG2016/64 : 5 posts by 2 authors. 4 images.

Found this growing near a rainwater drain on my walk today. I almost missed it thinking it to be the Duchesnea but thankfully noticed the leaves arranged in fives. I think this is a Potentilla species (P. sundaica?). Please advise

We could consider P. kleiniana too. Please advise.
