I just can't think of the name of this plant and seem to have lost it's tag. Does anyone recognize it ? Thanks...

Looks like Lady's Mantle to me

Thanks Gillian. My first thought was that it was Lady's Mantle but it doesn't look anything like the other Lady's Mantle that I have that I know for sure is a Lady's Mantle. Are there different varieties ?

Looks like Ivy leaf Geranium to me Mike

Yes Janette it does look like Ivy Geranium. I always thought that it did but I know for sure that it isn't. The geraniums have much darker and shiny leaves. This one has been coming up each spring for four years. The geraniums would never live through our winters.

I am sure someone will have your answer before long Mike

Mike this looks like what I know to be Lady's Mantle, the other plant you have listed as Lady's Mantle looks more like a geranium to me.

If the flowers are yellow it's Lady's Mantle... although the forming flower head looks like a geranium... hmmm...do the leaf edges look fringed?

Thank you all. This is lady's mantle for sure. I got the two confused when i posted the photos. The other plant definitly is Coral Bells.
