| | | Is this fool's parsley?
I think that this is Fool's Parsley ( Aethusa cynapium). But it does not appear to have the long upper bracts to give it the 'bearded' look. I would appreciate views on my guess. Found on 26 August in a cultivated wheat field on chalk. |

| | | Re: Is this fool's parsley? Yes it is Fool's Parsley - Aethusa cynapium.
The length of the bracts does seem to vary, as has been shown from pics. posted on WAB.
Always worth noting bracts when attempting to ID an Umbelifera, but in this case nothing to worry about.
