Alchemilla forms low mounds of basal foliage with distinctive toothed, pleated, round leaves. The foliage alone makes it a showy front-of-the-border plant. Rain will bead up and collect on leaves, an eye-catching effect. In June, sprays of small chartreuse flowers emerge on wiry stalks above the basal foliage. Alchemilla has a reputation for self-sowing, but it has never been problematic in our garden.
