Chaerophyllum hirsutum

Chaerophyllum hirsutum is a pretty perennial plant, similar to cow parsley or Queen Anne's lace. It has fern-like, finely divided and aromatic foliage, and delicate umbels of small white or pink flowers.

Chaerophyllum hirsutum 'Roseum' bears masses of lilac-pink flowers in late spring or early summer. It's ideal for growing in wild or cottage garden schemes, and looks fantastic when planted en masse in informal borders with alliums and other tall perennials. For best results grow 'Roseum' in moist but well-drained soil in sun or shade. Cut down plants after flowering.
