Alchemilla Alpina Var. Anisiaca

Alchemilla alpina var. anisiaca is a lesser-known member of the Ranunculaceae family known for its delicate, fern-like foliage and clusters of small, bright yellow flowers. This plant is native to high altitude regions of Europe and is often found in alpine meadows and rocky soils. It thrives in cool, moist environments and is well adapted to harsh mountain climates. Its common name, "lady's mantle," reflects its historical use in traditional herbal medicine. Despite its beauty and ecological importance, it remains relatively obscure in mainstream horticulture.
