Description
A compact, clump-forming perennial valued for its soft, velvety foliage and abundant sprays of bright golden-yellow flowers. Blooming from late spring through early summer, the airy flower clusters rise above the rounded, silvery-green leaves, creating a light, frothy effect that complements a wide range of garden plants.
Growing to approximately 30–45 cm (12–18 inches) tall and wide, 'Gold Strike' is well suited to borders, cottage gardens, woodland edges, and container plantings. Its attractive foliage retains ornamental appeal throughout the growing season and often catches dew or raindrops, adding extra visual interest.
This easy-to-grow perennial thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil, although it tolerates a variety of soil types once established. Removing spent flower stems after blooming encourages fresh foliage and helps maintain a tidy appearance.
Hardy, low maintenance, and attractive to pollinators, Alchemilla sericata 'Gold Strike' is an excellent choice for softening planting schemes, edging pathways, or providing long-lasting texture and color in mixed perennial borders.
