Alchemilla mollis (Lady's Mantle)

Lady's Mantle

Lady's Mantle plants form a mound of rounded, velvety soft olive-green leaves, which catch and hold water drops, then sparkle in the sun. Sprays of chartreuse flowers are a nice filler for cut arrangements. Excellent for edging. Lady's Mantle plants should be sheared back after blooming to rejuvenate the leaves and generally tidy the clumps up for the remainder of the growing season. An easy-care perennial that grows well in sun or shade.
