Black as Lace




Anthriscus sylvestris "Raven's Wing".

This is a super cow parsley deviant with the blackest of black lacy foliage. If you are mad about Actaea Brunette this is a must for you. This Anthriscus is very early into growth in the Spring and looks wonderful with orange tulips such as Abbu Hassan.
Also looks good with the deep crimson flowers of Cirsium rivulare Atropurpureum
Anthriscus s. "Raven's Wing" is dead easy to grow and thrives in any soil except bog. It is a biennial and self seeds 70% true. When the seedlings come up in the autumn it is easy to distinguish and rogue out any unwanted green leafed forms

A couple of weeks ago I was writing about the wonderful yellowy green Hacquettia. I cannot get enough of this colour in the garden. At the moment Euphorbia myrsinites is in full flower, cascading over the edges of our raised beds - the coils of blue foliage perfectly set off by the Derbyshire sandstone.

Euphorbia myrsinites
This plant will grow in any well drained soil and is very long lived. Looks wonderful with the dwarf tulip Persian Jewel. Click here to see more details on our website.
