Key traits and growing stats from plant data
Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water consistently, especially during dry spells, to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering in autumn and winter.
Alchemilla tredecimloba prefers regular moisture for optimal growth and lush foliage, but it can tolerate short periods of dryness once established.
Deadhead spent flower stalks to encourage a tidier appearance and potentially a second flush of blooms. After flowering, or in late autumn, you can cut back the entire plant to the ground to promote fresh growth in the spring and prevent self-seeding if unwanted.
Propagation is typically done by dividing established clumps in spring or autumn. Sow fresh seeds outdoors in autumn or indoors in late winter.
Division is the most common and easiest method for home gardeners, ensuring true-to-type plants.
Alchemilla tredecimloba is a perennial that benefits from division rather than frequent repotting. If container-grown, repot every 2-3 years in spring into a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining soil to refresh nutrients and provide more space.
