Lady's Mantle
Lady's Mantle is a cherished perennial celebrated for its velvety, scallop-edged foliage and delicate chartreuse blooms that create an airy halo in late spring and early summer. Growing in soft mounds, this plant is ignored by deer and rabbits, making it ideal for cottage gardens or as a lush groundcover. It is highly versatile, tolerating conditions from full sun to full shade, though it prefers moist, well-draining soil with morning sun. Best suited for zones 3-8, this plant spreads gradually and its flowers are excellent for dried arrangements.
