The Wild Carrot (Daucus carota) is a graceful biennial (sometime perennial) wildflower native to European meadows and field edges. It forms finely divided, aromatic foliage and produces delicate white, lace-like umbels that attract pollinators from early summer to autumn, adding a natural, airy texture to wildflower plantings, cottage gardens and ecological restoration areas. Hardy, self-seeding and resilient, wild carrot brings both beauty and biodiversity to any naturalistic planting scheme.
Perfect For: Wildflower meadows • Naturalistic landscapes • Pollinator strips • Roadside or field margins • Cottage gardens
