Description
Anthriscus sylvestris 'Ravenswing'
Height x Spread: 75cm x 60cm
This rather special form of Cow Parsley produces masses of delicate white flowers in umbels held up on striking purple-black branched stems with deeply cut filigree leaves.
It adds lightness and grace to a naturalistic planting scheme and looks wonderful drifting through a meadow or wildlife garden. It can self seed around, but unwanted seedlings can be easily removed. Good and tough, it thrives in sun or part shade, in any soil.
