{"product_id":"ladys-mantle-72-cell-plug-tray","title":"Lady's Mantle - 72-Cell Plug Tray","description":"\u003cp\u003eLady's mantle is loved for its soft, rounded, scalloped leaves, which catch dew and raindrops that sit on the surface like tiny beads of glass. From late spring into early summer, it sends up airy sprays of tiny chartreuse flowers that float over the foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt forms a tidy clump about 15 to 18 inches tall and slowly spreads, making it a great edging, groundcover or filler plant. The flowers are a favorite filler in bouquets and dry well. It is easy to grow, holds an Award of Garden Merit, and deer and rabbits leave it alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNearly round, softly hairy leaves 3 to 6 inches across with shallow lobes and scalloped, toothed edges, in soft gray-green, often holding silvery droplets of water. Above them rise loose, frothy sprays of tiny star-shaped flowers in chartreuse yellow-green. The plant forms a low, rounded, spreading clump 15 to 18 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide. At peak bloom a haze of chartreuse flowers spills over and around the gray-green leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLady's mantle wants more moisture and a bit of afternoon shade than lavender, so plant it along the outer, better-watered edge of the bed or in a partly shaded border where its chartreuse froth can still echo nearby lavender.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrows in full sun to part shade in average, well-drained soil with regular moisture; give it afternoon shade in hot, dry summers. Hardy in USDA zones 3-7. Shear off faded flowers before they set seed to limit self-sowing and to bring on a fresh flush of leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alchemilla mollis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chartreuse yellow-green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft gray-green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low, rounded, spreading clump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15–18 in tall × 18–24 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun, part sun to part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late-May\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-June\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Flush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne full 72-cell plug tray: 72 young starter plugs of this variety (cells about 1⅓ in. wide × 2½ in. deep), rooted and ready to pot up into quarts or gallons.
