🍫 Chocolate Ammi | Umbels of Velvet Shadow 🍫
(Daucus carota 'Dara')

Step softly into the dusk of your summer garden, and you may find her—Chocolate Ammi, cloaked in shades of garnet, merlot, and deepest plum. Each umbel unfolds like a parasol stitched from lace and nightfall, rising above lacy foliage with the quiet poise of a noble enchantress.

This cultivar of wild Queen Anne's Lace has traded in her white wedding veil for something far more mysterious. Blooms range from dusty rose to wine-dark velvet, with some keeping just a ghost of blush pink—a moody, romantic gradient that shimmers in the morning dew and holds its own among black dahlias, burgundy sunflowers, and pale strawflowers.

🦋 Pollinators' Favorite + Spellbinding Cut Flower:
Beloved by bees, butterflies, and lovers of unusual beauty, Chocolate Ammi dances in the summer sun and holds wonderfully in the vase. Her tall, branching stems and feathery leaves lend both structure and movement to bouquets, wild or refined.

🌱 To Call Her In:
Direct sow after the last frost or start indoors 4–6 weeks early. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil, and give her space to stretch—this plant can reach 3 to 4 feet tall, blooming midsummer into fall. She may reseed lightly if left to her own quiet mischief.

Invite Chocolate Ammi into your cut flower sanctuary or moonlit border, and let her whisper of vintage velvet gowns, forgotten love letters, and the soft rustle of petals after dusk. 🌙🌿
