Alchemilla mollis ‘Robusta’
“Giant Lady’s Mantle”
A fine, new selection of “Lady’s Mantle,” ‘Robusta’
grows much more upright, with larger leaves than the average species.
To 2’ tall & wide, it’s a clumper with rounded, velvety,
soft foliage famous for holding rain drops on its leaves looking like
jewels for several hours. In early Summer to early Fall, it bears
loose sprays of tiny yellow flowers. The ‘Robusta’ variety
often blooms twice. Excellent as a ground cover, it grows well in
HEAVY CLAY SOIL & is quite DROUGHT TOLERANT once established.
Provides lots of long lasting cut flowers that also dry well.
