10 Seeds Lady's Mantle Alchemilla mollis Perennial Flower Garden Plant
Lady's Mantle (Alchemilla mollis) is a clump-forming perennial grown for its scalloped, softly textured foliage and its frothy sprays of tiny chartreuse blooms. The leaves hold dew in a decorative way, and the airy flower clusters create a gentle, old-fashioned charm in beds and borders.
This plant works well in cottage gardens, woodland edges, and mixed perennial borders, where it serves as a low-maintenance ornamental and an effective filler among taller flowers. The blooms are long-lasting and suitable for cutting, and the foliage maintains a tidy appearance through the season when given consistent moisture.
