This herbaceous perennial likes rich garden soil and regular watering with excellent drainage. Plant in a spot that gets good, long stretches of sunlight each day. Trim spent blooms for a tidy look. You need not worry about rabbits and deer with this plant, as it is of little interest to them.

Lady's Mantle is among the most classic, all-time favorite garden ground covers. Its scalloped leaves are said to repell water, but it might be more accurate to note that they hold onto morning dew and rain water, causing it to bead up and look like rounded, diamond-bright droplets. Chartreuse-yellow flower sprays appear in June to accent these leaves, rising up on strong stems for good visibility. A garden beauty that has stood the test of time.
