Alchemilla Alpina Subsp. Anisiaca

Alchemilla alpina subsp. anisiaca is a lesser-known member of the Rosaceae family known for its delicate, fern-like foliage and clusters of small, bright yellow flowers. Native to alpine regions of Europe, this plant thrives in cool, moist environments and is often found in rocky soils at high elevations. Its common name, "lady's tears," reflects its historical association with alchemy and its use in traditional herbal remedies. While not widely cultivated, it holds ecological significance as a food source for certain pollinators. Due to its rarity and habitat specificity, conservation efforts are essential to protect this unique plant from environmental threats.
