Please can somebody help me identify this plant. It has been in our beds

I would say it is the alpine alchemilla mollis.
With a shiny leaf and a white edge to it? A. mollis isn't sharply
divided in that way, it's grey-green, 'felted', not shiny.
But alchemilla alpina is.

Yes, that's what it looks like to me, too. I have loads of it in my
garden. Unfortunately, I also have that other alchemilla, which seems to
have a plan for world domination.
