Ivesia baileyi is a species of flowering plant in the rose family known by the common name Bailey's ivesia.

It is native to the Modoc Plateau of northeastern California and adjacent sections of Oregon, Nevada, and Idaho, as well as the northern slopes of the Sierra Nevada. It grows in volcanic rocky habitat, often growing from crevices in sheer rock faces.

The inflorescence is an open cyme of several tiny flowers with white, cream, or yellowish petals about 2 millimeters long.
