Alchemilla mollis (Lady's Mantle)

Alchemilla mollis
(Lady’s Mantle)

Lady’s Mantle forms dense mounds of soft, scalloped gray-green foliage that catches and holds water droplets after rain. Airy sprays of chartreuse flowers rise above the leaves from late spring into early summer, adding light color and texture to borders and mixed perennial gardens.

This dependable perennial slowly spreads by rhizomes and works well as an edging plant, groundcover, or filler between larger perennials. It may gently self-seed when growing conditions are favorable, making it a natural choice for cottage gardens and informal plantings.
