wulf's Alchemilla mollis Care Instructions
Lady's mantle normally grows to a mature height of 40.0 cm (that's 1.30 feet imperial) so ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant.
Your garden is in partial sun light: Lady's mantle enjoys a full sun position, so make adjustments where necessary.
Remember to water moderately.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (8) is not within the ideal known range for Lady's mantle. The recommended range is between Zone 4 and 7. You may have to reassess this planting for suitability in your garden.
More information about Alchemilla mollis is available in the Folia gardener's wiki. All Alchemilla mollis Care Instructions have been kindly provided by our members.
