Alchemilla mollis 'Auslese' / LADY'S MANTLE
Alchemilla mollis 'Auslese', commonly known as Lady's Mantle, is a perennial plant prized for its soft, rounded foliage and delicate appearance. The leaves are velvety, light green, and often form a beautiful rosette, with tiny droplets of water often collecting on them, creating a shimmering effect. In late spring to early summer, it produces clusters of small, yellow-green flowers that rise above the foliage, adding a subtle touch of color to the garden. This variety is known for its compact size, making it ideal for borders or as ground cover in shady or partially shaded locations. Lady's Mantle is also valued for its medicinal properties, historically used for its astringent and soothing qualities.
