Lady's mantle, also known as Soft lady's-mantle, Leopard's bane, Bear's foot, Nine hooks, Lion's foot

Lady's mantle is known for its low maintenance and resilience, making it an easy-to-care-for plant. Key care points include ensuring well-drained soil, as lady's mantle prefers moist but not waterlogged conditions. It is also crucial to provide lady's mantle with partial shade to protect its delicate foliage from harsh sunlight.
