Alchemilla mollis 'Thriller'
Lady's Mantle
Excellent gray-green foliage with tiny, star-shaped, green-yellow blooms. Slightly larger than mollis yet remains compact and well behaved.
Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips:
Will grow in any well drained moist, shady area. In the cooler summers of northern zones, they will grow in full sun if kept consistantly moist. In the south, they must be sheltered from the harsh afternoon sun and should be planted in fertile, moist soil. Bloom time may be reduced in hot climates
Interesting Notes:
The hairy foliage traps water easily, Thriller does not do well in areas where short, heavy downpours are immediately followed by hot, humid afternoons. These conditions encourage foliar diseases which may be cleared up by use of a fungicide.
