distribution_en: Temperate to Tropical Mountains
description_en: Genus of about 250 species of perennials from meadows and light woodland, some from rocky habitats, in N. temperate and arctic zones, and from mountain regions in tropical Africa, India, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia (Java). Alchemillas are valued for both their attractive foliage and their frothy sprays of flowers. Most have woody rhizomes, and shallowly to palmately lobed, rounded or kidney-shaped, often silky-haired leaves. The many-branched cymes of tiny, green or yellowish green flowers, 2-3mm (1/16-1/8in) across, are good for cutting. Alchemillas are suitable for a wildflower or large rock garden, or for a border.
hardiness_en: Fully hardy to frost hardy; A. ellenbeckii is hardy to -8°C (18°F).
