Anthriscus sylvestris 'Ravenswing'
This is a pretty form of common cow parsley, bearing clusters of tiny, cream-white flowers in contrast with lacy, dark purple foliage. It’s perfect for growing in a large informal border or cottage garden scheme, and is perfect for using in meadows among ornamental grasses. It makes a dramatic cut flower.

Grow in any well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Cut down to near ground level in early autumn and mulch well
If using as a cut flower,support with brushwood or link stakes before the flowers appear.
