It can tolerate frost yet also thrives in the warmth of summer. To ensure ideal growth, keep the temperature stable. In extreme cold or heat, extra care may be required.
Fertilizer
The best time to fertilize Lady's mantle is in early spring, as it comes out of dormancy and starts active growth. Fertilizing supplies essential nutrients for healthy development.
