Alchemilla vulgaris
Lady's mantle thrives in partially shaded garden borders with consistently moist, well-drained soil. It is a tough, low-maintenance perennial that tolerates a range of conditions and self-seeds readily. Cut back after flowering to encourage a fresh flush of its distinctive pleated, dew-catching foliage.
