Alchemilla erythropoda

Alchemilla erythropoda, the dwarf lady's mantle, is a species of flowering herbaceous perennial plant in the family Rosaceae, native to Eastern Europe.

It forms a clump of hairy, palmate leaves up to 20 centimetres (7.9 in) high, with sprays of green-yellow flowers in early summer.

[2] It is smaller than A. mollis, however, and its leaves may develop a reddish tinge if grown in full sun.

[3] It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.

[5] Because of the way water droplets collect on the leaves, medieval alchemists thought they possessed medicinal qualities, and they were used to treat women's ailments.
