About Ammi Majus
With delicate white flower heads resembling intricate lacework, this annual plant creates a frothy haze above its finely cut green foliage. Florists often utilise these flowers to infuse bouquets with an ethereal and romantic ambience. Moreover, the blooms attract beneficial insects such as butterflies and hoverflies, while the autumn seed heads prove appealing to finches. In the garden, this plant adds a delightful touch and exhibits an architectural quality. As the plants begin to grow upward, providing support with twiggy hazel stems will ensure they remain sturdy.
In The Records
