Hey all you dpc greenthumbs, I need help identifying this shrubbery 
I live in Eastern Ontario near Ottawa. It's a perennial, the leaves are dark green, shiny, ovoid, slightly serrated. There are five petals per flower and they are a distinct peach/salmon colour. Very low-growing shrub, it''s maybe 2 feet high max, and spreads out.
Anyone?

It looks like some type of potentilla.
