Stagonospora alchemillae
Alchemilla alpina, also known as alpine lady's-mantle, is a perennial plant native to Europe and Southern Greenland. It has been used for medicinal purposes for centuries and is also popular in horticulture as a ground cover and in rock gardens. This plant has a woody rhizome and grows up to 20 cm tall. Its leaves are palmate with lanceolate leaflets and its flowers are lime green with four sepals. Alpine lady's-mantle is easily distinguished from other species by its separate leaflets. It can be found in northern Europe, mountainous regions, and even in southern Greenland. This plant is also a host to various species of fungi.
