Nursery contributed plant descriptions
Also known as ‘Wild Carrot’ is as beloved by our pollinators as it is by floral arrangers. Fat, flat topped, complex umbels on tall 3’ stems start out red burgundy and fade slowly to rose or white in early summer. Scatter around in the border for a great effect in between taller perennials. Technically a biennial but often blooms first year from seed, reseeds. Most soils, full sun, moist or dryish.
This is a brand new wild carrot, or Queen Anne's Lace, that has large flowers in flat umbels that are great for cutting. The lacy blooms deepen color as they age to a purple and eventually a darker red-purple. Self sows.
