Alchemilla erythropoda
Alchemilla erythropoda, the dwarf lady's mantle, is a more compact version of A. mollis with blue-green leaves.
Alchemilla erythropoda, the dwarf lady’s mantle, is reminiscent of the better-known A. mollis but smaller forming a compact mound of bluish-green, scalloped, serrated leaves and sprays of chartreuse flowers held in many rounded clusters that turn bold tones of orange and red as they age. Quite hardy and long-lived. Great as a ground cover and a cut flower.
