    Hi, does anyone know where I could obtain Plug plants or possibly seed from Cow Parsley. Are there other gardeners out there who adore this plant [​IMG]

    Actually I considered it the other day, but I like wild carrot better. Does it (either plant) take over very quickly once established?

    Wild carrot (queen anne's lace) looks similar to cow parsley, it's the tall thing that horses go mad for when they're walking past grass verges!!

    Thanks for photos, its lovely ,would'nt mind some of that growing in my garden. I had a horse who would dive into the hedges but I was probably to busy trying to get her head out to appreciate the beauty of the flower :D
