A unique and interesting addition to your garden – certain to arouse curiosity from onlookers. Pinnately divided foliage is an attractive glaucous-blue. Tall flower stalks jet up from the base and culminate in a starburst-like umbel of sunny-yellow flower puffs. Large seeds scented like parsley offer interest after the flowers have faded. This member of the carrot family was traditionally used extensively by Native Americans medicinally, ceremonially, and culinarily. Attractive to butterflies and pollinators.
