Rough chervil
Chaerophyllum temulum
Rough chervil is a shade-loving biennial herb best suited to naturalistic or wildflower garden settings, where it self-seeds freely along hedgerows and woodland edges. Keep the soil consistently moist and provide partial shade to mimic its native habitat. Note that this plant is toxic if ingested and should be handled with care, especially in gardens frequented by children or pets.
