Lady's mantle

Overpowering a garden with tons of color is surprisingly easy. It's a trap that experienced, and beginner gardeners alike fall into. After all, who doesn't want a vibrant garden? But sometimes the accent plants are as important as the centerpieces. Lady's mantle adds tons of charm without overdoing it. Their fuzzy leaves capture droplets of water and can even shine like jewels in the right light. Use it as ground cover or as an edging plant. Lady's mantle plants don't typically require any special maintenance, so they're an easy addition to any garden.
