Description:
A graceful, old-fashioned perennial valued for its soft, velvety foliage and airy sprays of chartreuse flowers, Lady’s Mantle adds a romantic touch to borders, woodland edges, and cottage gardens. The scalloped leaves collect morning dew like tiny jewels, creating a beautiful, textural display even when not in bloom. In summer, the plant produces clouds of delicate greenish-yellow blooms that complement nearly any color scheme.
This easygoing perennial thrives in full sun to part shade and adapts well to a range of soil conditions, making it ideal for low-maintenance plantings. It’s particularly effective as a groundcover or edging plant and works beautifully in cut or dried flower arrangements.
