The Heritage Herb Woman Collection

Bring timeless botanical charm to your garden with The Heritage Herb Woman Collection. This curated three-plant set unites Lady’s Mantle (Alchemilla vulgaris), Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis), and Lady’s Bedstraw (Galium verum), which is seamlessly substituted with Red Clover (Trifolium pratense) for all autumn dispatches starting from October. 

Rooted in traditional herbal lore and prized across generations, this living collection delivers soft-hued blooms, tactile foliage, and vital support for local pollinators. 
What’s Included in the Collection
  • Lady’s Mantle (Alchemilla vulgaris): Famous for its pleated, scalloped leaves that hold morning dewdrops like pearls, bearing delicate clouds of chartreuse-yellow flowers.
  • Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis): Celebrated for its bright yellow blooms that open dramatically at dusk, enchanting evening visitors and nocturnal moths.
  • Lady’s Bedstraw (Galium verum): A storied meadow perennial featuring dense panicles of golden-yellow flowers with a sweet, honey-like fragrance (Dispatched Spring through Late Summer). [1]
  • Red Clover (Trifolium pratense): A powerhouse heritage herb featuring lush, trefoil leaves marked with silver chevrons and deep rose-pink flowerheads. Highly valued in traditional women's wellness folklore, it enriches the soil and provides a vital late-season nectar source. (Dispatched in the Autumn from October as a seasonal substitution).

Planting

Plant from spring to early autumn in fertile, well-drained soil. Place Lady's Mantle and Lady's Bedstraw where they can soften border edges, with Evening Primrose towards the middle or back of the planting.
