Queen Annes Lace is a super common weed in most of the world but not here in tropical South Florida. So when French Farms tried this bronze cut flower version of the plant last season we were skeptical, however it thrived in his cut flower fields. Queen Annes Lace is also known as wild carrot and can be toxic if ingested so keep that in mind if you are planting this variety around children or the public. Beautiful dainty flowers cluster on umbrella-like umbels and vary wildly in color. Some are light and purplish, others have deep dark warm brown tones. Flowers in this shape are uncommon in South Florida due to the climate but this variety, our Green Mist Ammi, and common Dill are all similar. Each plants produce lots of flower clusters and you can cut long stems if needed.

Plant Care
Plant Care
When your plant delivery arrives, make sure you water your new plants thoroughly with a light spray of water (none of this thumb over the hose stuff). We recommend planting them within 10 days of receiving them. If you do intent to wait to plant them, we recommend placing them in a shallow reservoir (like a baking pan) and filling it with half an inch of water so they can drink the water from below while you are at work and place them in an area with plenty of sun. When planting in your garden always add a dash of Organic granular fertilizer, and give them extra water during their first week in their new home, while they adjust. We recommend disturbing the root ball as little as possible during planting.
