Plant care
To keep your Alchemilla mollis blooming, simply snip off the fading flower spikes. This little trick will encourage new blooms to appear, keeping your garden vibrant right into early autumn. Alchemilla tends to self-seed freely, which can lead to excessive spreading if not controlled. To prevent unwanted spreading, it's recommended to remove the seed heads after flowering.
