I must admit I've neglected picking some of my non-ornamental carrots this year and they have grown some gorgeous flowers that I've never let them have the chance to do before! I might have to pop a few in a vase :) Anna Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03919869821280585077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12357501.post-69692827932246586082013-08-25T15:25:23.146+01:002013-08-25T15:25:23.146+01:00Thanks for all your comments which are much apprec...Thanks for all your comments which are much appreciated :)Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794392333038962798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12357501.post-5119304792056418372013-08-25T11:42:23.642+01:002013-08-25T11:42:23.642+01:00All umbellifers are fascinating, this one especial...All umbellifers are fascinating, this one especially but I only have the botanical form in my garden which isn't as showy.

I am impressed with its vase life, I often find that seed packet says last well in vase and mine dont but them I think the growers actually pick when still in tight bud.<br /><br />Helen/patientgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02164036792673009326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12357501.post-81614313287809852132013-08-21T19:28:43.530+01:002013-08-21T19:28:43.530+01:00This is a new one on me too, but it is gorgeous.

I've found plants doing all manner of strange things this last couple of years with the unpredictable weather, so who knows what will happen next year. I agree with your colour description, dusky rose suits it far better than crimson. I've never grown this before but it looks lovely as a cut flower, definitely one to consider for the cutting garden (of which I never seem to get round to planting up).Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.com
